Volunteers are a crucial resource for nonprofits. They build an organization’s capacity by lending helping hands to the mission. They bring ideas, perspectives, and expertise that strengthens how well a nonprofit can get its wok done.

During this session, we explore the system involved in effectively managing volunteers. We break down the task into its parts — volunteer recruitment, engagement, supervision, and support — to leave you with practical tools to implement right away. You’ll also learn about free resources that you can use to train your volunteers about safety and health.

This is an interactive session, so come ready to participate! It is designed for anyone within a nonprofit team involved in recruiting and supporting volunteers. Whether you are a dedicated volunteer coordinator or any other member of the team, you’ll get ideas on how to strengthen your volunteer program.

Aero Methow Rescue Service

GRANT RECIPIENT

Due to being rural, remote, and geographically isolated, we must be prepared to do more than respond to emergencies. We have become a healthcare partner who fills gaps in service. The grant allowed our board the time and ability to work with a Strategic Planner to modify our plan to address those gaps.

Scholarship Recipient

My father was a migrant agricultural worker who eventually started his own cherry and apple orchard. He told me if I wanted to live a better life, I had to get an education. I plan on starting a career with the Chelan PUD with a passion for renewable energy and in turn give back to my parents and community for supporting my dreams.
