Volunteer Engagement: Recruit, Retain, and Secure Staff

Learn successful strategies to bridge the gap between volunteer engagement and retention.

According to Fidelity Charitable Funds, two out of every three volunteers either stopped or cut back on their volunteer activities due to Covid. More than one out of 10 volunteer organizations had to cease operations. Given the strange times that we're in, reintroducing volunteerism to our communities can be a challenge for many organizations. Many, however, often overlook or don't give enough credence to the low-hanging fruit that can successfully attract and retain volunteers--at low and sometimes no cost. This presentation will bring commonsense solutions to bear on the recruitment and retention of volunteers and will package these solutions in such a way as to demonstrate to everyone in the organization--from support staff to board members--the key roles they play in this effort. Learn what it takes to be part of the team.
