Volunteer Management Resources

Understanding the needs and interests of volunteers are key to recruiting, retaining, supporting and involving volunteers.

By engaging volunteers effectively and in a meaningful way, their time and contribution will make a real difference in your organization.

You can begin by:

  • listing and measuring what your volunteers accomplish
  • asking your volunteers how they think they can be engaged more effectively
  • asking your volunteer board members how they are involved in the organization's work
  • collecting the stories of your volunteers and publishing these internally; what can you learn from them?
