Writing an effective volunteer recruitment blurb is an essential step to achieving the mission of your organization.
You want volunteers; you need volunteers. But what you ask can make a world of difference. At this 30-minute webinar, we will address how to best define and describe your volunteer opportunity while answering the basic “who, what, where, when and how” in your recruitment message

As a volunteer manager, you make a difference. Your volunteers make a difference, too
. Why don’t people notice this? Improving how we communicate our volunteer impact can make a difference to your volunteers (in quantity and quality), impact your organization and increase your job satisfaction. This workshop will talk about data: what you have, what your need and what others can provide (for free) to support your volunteer impact. We will address the wide variety of audiences important to volunteer managers -- whether the audiences know it or not. This is a great workshop as we prepare for what’s ahead for the nonprofit sector.
