There are many volunteer opportunities available for people who want to donate their extra time to help others. Nonprofit organizations are in great need of committed volunteers who are willing to serve a couple hours a week. There are wonderful and fulfilling opportunities for senior citizens, students and all those who have the time.
Decide on the type of needs you want to address in your community. For example, if you notice the number or homelessness is growing in your community, you can volunteer to feed and clothe them. You can volunteer in a children homeless shelter. Another need you can assist in is education. There are many people who cannot read, write or do basic math. You can attend a tutor training workshop at a literacy center and begin tutoring adults and children.
Contact the volunteer coordinator at the agency where you want to volunteer. Ask him or her questions about the program. For example, you may want to ask about the type of services offered and what Demographics of the community receive those services. You can also ask when and how long they will need you on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.
If you feel you have not received enough information from the volunteer coordinator, request that he or she send you literature by mail or email. Visit the agency’s website to learn more about what they offer.
After you have talked with the volunteer coordinator and have read all the literature they provide to you, you are now in a position to decide if you want to volunteer. If you decide to volunteer set up an appointment to visit the agency. The volunteer coordinator may conduct an interview and give you some paperwork to complete. They may also introduce you to their staff members and other volunteers.
During the meeting, tell the volunteer coordinator the times and days you can commit. Remember they are depending on your help so provide a day and time you can commit to.
When your volunteer assignment has started, arrive on time. You don’t want clients who are being helped to feel that the nonprofit organization does not care about them.
