Management Tips » Volunteer Management
Volunteer management is the process of organizing and training nonprofit volunteers. More than any other institution, nonprofits rely on the help of unpaid volunteers to keep the organization running. Without the proper support, however, these individuals won’t be able to effectively do their work. This kind of support includes making instruction sheets, creating volunteer orientation programs, and assigning staff members to keep track of their work. The description for the volunteer position should be clearly written so that applicants know exactly what is expected of them. It’s also important to make sure all volunteers feel welcome and appreciated.
