Top 5 things that would make volunteering easier

Okay so Twitter Moms have teamed up with Jooners to ask for 5 tips for volunteering.  Jooners is a website where you can create an online sign up sheet, automate the process, take care of the reminders (and Thank You notes), and increase volunteer participation and donations.

So honestly I haven’t yet volunteered because my son just started school in January and I have another son to take care of.  I do have ideas though and from volunteering in the past.  I get notices weekly about opportunities and I feel bad I haven’t helped out yet.

  1. Use the Internet or email for sign-ups.  I am not a phone person, but would rather receive email communications.
  2. Make the times of day spaced out.  I can’t volunteer until my husband gets home to watch the kids, unless I can bring them with me.
  3. Send out notices far enough in advance for people to sign up and plan their schedules around.
  4. Offer enough information in advance and at the event so everyone knows whats going on before, during, and after.
  5. Offer ways for volunteers to work from home.  I would love to help out by coordinating, emailing, or calling others if I have to.  I would love to help out, but like I said I am homebound until my husband gets home and even then we are trying to eat dinner and get the kids in bed.
