People
Volunteer Management That Keeps People

You’ll leave knowing how to
- Write volunteer roles people want to say yes to
- Build onboarding that takes hours, not weeks
- Track and recognize volunteers so they come back

- Pitch companies on skills and in-kind support, not just cash
- Structure partnerships that renew each year
Audience

- Why authenticity beats polish, with examples
- Roles and asks that turn interest into action

- What women donors look for in an organization
- Ways to involve donors beyond the check
