Fundraising Resolution No. 3 (Volunteering): Who, Me?!?!
Most lists agree that “volunteer” is one of the top resolutions people make each year. And as fundraisers, we know the importance of volunteers for running profitable events, preparing mailings, presenting our causes in the community and many other roles.
But as overworked nonprofit employees, it’s sometimes hard to volunteer ourselves. Time is limited, we already work more hours than we’re paid for, we can’t find the right fit or (worst of all, in my opinion) when we have volunteered, it’s been less than fulfilling.
