As an extension of the LGDOS project, another interest of mine is millennial giving and volunteering. As a millennial, I find that my volunteer practices differ from those across older generations. Because the LGDOS evaluation provides such a breadth of data, I will create a generational variable to allow for cross-generation analysis and comparison. Research questions include the following:
- Are millennials motivated to participate in the LGDOS for different reasons than other generational members?
- Among different generations, how is organizational commitment affected by corporate volunteerism?
- What impact do millennials perceive to have as a result of corporate volunteerism?
- Do millennials perceive team-building activities to have more of an impact on their volunteer experience than other generational members?
