Volunteer Recruitment Sessions
Project details
What we need
- 3-5 one hour strategy sessions covering topics like potential volunteer market, timeline, strategies for outreach and recommendations for implementation (potential risks, possible management tools, etc.)
- A written summary of goals, target audiences and channels to prioritize
- A starter plan of recommendations & actionable next steps to begin executing your strategy.
Additional details
We're looking to recruit consistent, long-term volunteers for our Car Care Program. Right now, we offer this volunteer opportunity Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday for 2 shifts. The goal is to build up a team of trained and consistent volunteers so that we can eventually expand the Car Shop to be open on Saturdays as well.
What we have in place
- We currently have an easily accessible volunteer calendar with a description of the volunteer role, and an easy way to sign up. We also have a web page that describes the Car Care program as a whole, and the way that it fits into our broader mission & vision as an organization.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,866 , allowing us to prepare, decorate and maintain our homes for formerly homeless men and women.
The car shop is part of our Community Works program that provides opportunities for our formerly homeless residents to earn income in dignified ways, utilizing their gifts and talents. Building up our volunteer base in the Car Care program will allow us to expand the hours of the shop so that we can service more cars, and create more income opportunities for residents.
