FAQ Organizations:
Q: What can I post on this site? A: Events (fundraisers and community events) as well as volunteer needs. Volunteer needs can be event centric (one time needs) or ongoing needs including board and committee positions. Q: When can I post information? A: Ongoing and as needs arise. There is an Open House launch on September 10; as volunteers go online, it behooves you to have your information up. Q: Why would I use this resource? A: When volunteers sign up on EstesVolunteers.org, they can become a Fan of your organization. When they login to the portal, they will be notified of your needs. Also, you can track volunteer hours for grant statistics. Your volunteers and their hours will also go towards a larger count of the community's volunteer impact. This helps the entire nonprofit community. Q: I already post opportunities and track volunteer hours, why would I create a profile? A: You have full control over your events and volunteer opportunities. A nonprofit calendar also allows organizations to not host events on the same day. This is a one-stop shop for increasing requests for voluntourism. Q: Why does EPNRC manage this program? A: Every time EPNRC gets a request for volunteers (which is often!), we can now send them to this site! We can only connect requests to needs if you put your information up there. EPNRC understands the vital role volunteers play in our community and we hope to make the connections between volunteers and organizations easier and centralized. Email EPNRC to ask more questions. |
FAQ Individuals:
Q: I already volunteer. Why would I register on this site? A: When you create a profile, you enter your skills (accounting, weaving, etc) and your interests (kids, education, environment), so the portal can help connect you with the right opportunity. Your volunteer hours can be recorded for the benefit of the organization and count towards community wide hours of impact. This also allows you to share volunteer opportunities with friends, family, and part-time residents. Q: Is my information private? A: Volunteer information is not sold. Organizations can respond to your indicated skills and interests via email. Q: What sorts of choices are listed? A: As many choices as nonprofits present! There are over 100 nonprofits serving Estes Valley. Imagine if you could thumb through all the opportunities to put your skills to work!
