About This Course

Do you need help but can’t afford to hire more staff? A Dream Team of volunteer fundraisers is the answer.

Far too many organizations engage volunteer fundraisers, if at all, in just special events and menial support tasks. Through this course, you will learn how to engage volunteers in all your fundraising activities, find the right volunteers for the right task, and orient, train, and educate them.

You will learn how to find and approach volunteers to get them to say yes to you. You will see what kind of materials to share with them. You will know how to keep good volunteers involved in your cause.

Once you understand how to keep volunteers coming back, you’ll realize fantastic results without adding to your existing staff. You’ll build credibility. You’ll garner much stronger community support.

So, are you ready to take your volunteer program to the next level? Enroll in Build a Dream Team of Volunteer Fundraisers today.
