Volunteer 'Jobs'

Volunteer ‘Jobs’

When you’re fortunate enough to get volunteers to help, it’s important to let them not what you expect of them and how they can contribute. There’s no need to write an actual job description to give them, but having a clear idea of what their responsibilities are is important. Make sure that you communicate about the following topics so that there is a mutual understanding about what they will be able to do to help:

-Specific responsibilities
-Training that you provide
-Time commitment and scheduling
-Team participation
-Opportunities to get more involved
-Fundraising goals
