The Question Bounties program will attach prizes once it is funded.\"\n---\n\n## Why it matters\n\nVolunteer time can help in different ways and also takes coordination. The proposed study would compare the value of roles with the cost of supporting them; it does not assume those answers are already known.\n\n## Where to start\n\nAsk organizations what an hour of each kind of volunteer help is worth to them, and compare that with the volunteer’s wage. See [Time Charitology](/programs/time-charitology/).\n",
