    Ep 101: How to Get Volunteers on Board from the Onset with Karen Knight

    Volunteers are the fuel that keeps nonprofit organizations humming.Not discounting volunteers' hard work to serve nonprofits’ missions, volunteers and how they talk about their experiences working with their favorite organizations provide the thrust that brings an abundance of donations, interest, and other volunteers into the system. In short, when you treat your volunteers well and create an experience that a) positions them as the heroes in your mission story and b) treats their time ...
