Suggested Tips and Techniques for Attraction
1) Posting available volunteer roles vs. posting all volunteer roles
2) Thorough role descriptions, including time commitment, location, solo/group activity, direct beneficiary contact, age, requirements
3) “A person who enjoys . . . may find this role appealing.”
4) “Don’t see a role listed here that matches your unique talents? Let’s chat! Tell us how you would like to make a difference . . .”
