Aloha! Welcome to the Art of Volunteering: dedicated to the growth of volunteerism in Hawaii - providing volunteer solutions for event planners and opportunities for volunteers of all ages and capabilities.

Our Mission: to organize and inspire teams of volunteers to provide service with aloha to organizations whose events enrich their communities through arts, culture, science and celebration.

News & Announcements:

(1/6/09) State and county funds in Hawaii are being slashed at a time when Hawaii's residents may need free social services more than ever. State and county officials have been directed to fund agency services that support the bottom rungs of Abraham Maslow's heirarchy of needs, basic physiological and safety essentials, and bypass services that support self-actualization (reaching our potential). What we need is a self-actualized (enlightened) approach to sustaining social service programs. Instead of looking to cash currencies only, Art of Volunteering promotes volunteer capital as a means to bridging the gap. Make a deposit in your community today: register now.

For Volunteers

Step 1: register as a volunteer By doing so (and filling in all information fields), we are creating a bank account of volunteer currency that can be mobilized for community good. When there is an event listed in the right hand frame it will automatically take you to the registration and scheduling pages where you can access information and volunteer opportunities related to that particular event. Check off the types of volunteer opportunities you're interested in when you register and we'll tell you when one has been scheduled in your Hawai'i county. Volunteers who are interested in improving their effectiveness as a volunteer may also enjoy the articles in the blog and links on this site.

For Organizations Planning an Event

The rest of this website is designed specifically for organizations (for profit and non-profit) that want to engage their community through volunteerism and make the experience beneficial for both the volunteers and their organization. It's for businesses that are planning an event or who utilize volunteers year-round and want to eliminate the inefficiency of creating a volunteer army from scratch, or deal with high volunteer turn-over issues. Visit the services and testimonials sections to learn more.
