About this organization
Mission
The mission of VolunteerNow is to transform communities through volunteerism. We believe that volunteers change everything.
About
Voly.org, powered by VolunteerNow, is the 24/7 connection between volunteers and local service opportunities. Annually, volunteers serve 1.6 million hours, generating a $40 million economic impact for the region by connecting more than 256,000 volunteers to 3,500 local organizations. School districts, banks, companies, nonprofits, court systems, governments and municipalities, and volunteer centers utilize Voly.org as software-as-a-service to fulfill their critical missions. The public-facing platform connects volunteers to hundreds of volunteer opportunities and needs directly posted by nonprofits. Voly.org customers utilize the same function in addition to a unique organization-specific portal, tracking, scheduling, data exporting, background checking integration, and more.The VolunteerNow Agency relations team provides specialized support focused on strengthening agencies' abilities to more effectively leverage volunteers' time and talents, which enables nonprofits to stretch limited resources. Often small to mid-sized nonprofit agencies do not have the capacity to recruit volunteers, nor do they have a dedicated staff memeber to manage volunteers. VolunteerNow fills those gaps by recognizing that when organizations can effectively engage and manage volunteers, they can make a greater impact on the community. We share our expertise through our cost-effective training and consulting on a wide range of topics. These include effective treatment, retention, recognition, conflict management, staff and volunteer relations, project management, risk management and skills based volunteering. This training improves the effectiveness of nonprofits and enhances the volunteer experience. VolunteerNow has also managed youth volunteering, service-learning and team projects for a number of leading corporations, foundations and national grant-making organizations.
