Knowing what volunteers think and feel about your program is vital to its growth. Here are a few ways you can gather that important information.
An effective volunteer program is key to not-for-profits having an impact in their communities.
One of the biggest challenges not-for-profit organizations face is the lack of engagement in volunteer programs. Organizations are finding it more and more difficult to find committed, reliable volunteers.
Many agencies don’t have the time, resources or expertise to effectively recruit and engage an efficient volunteer team. They are often left working with a mediocre team, resulting in mediocre results.

Building a culture of problem solving within your volunteer program can save you time, increase your organization’s impact, and satisfy & motivate volunteers.
