For Volunteers
Step 1: Register with a host organization listed under "Upcoming Events" in the right column. By doing so (and filling in all information fields), you are helping to create a depository of volunteer currency that can be mobilized for community good. 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.
