Make plans to join with friends, colleagues, and the entire VSAE community on December 1 for some holiday cheer as we recognize this year's VSAE’s Awards of Excellence and have fun at the live auction featuring great gifts and premier destinations, with proceeds going to support a local area charity and VSAE's education fund. 

This year the Community Service Committee has selected Comfort Zone Camp, an organization transforming the lives of children who have experienced the death of a parent, sibling, primary caregiver, or significant person. Donations will be accepted online beginning October 16, so start planning your one-of-a-kind auction item. 

The New Volunteer Lifecycle: Maximizing Value for Your Champions 

December 6, 2023

From onboarding to evaluation, volunteers are the lifeblood of associations. How do we, as association professionals, make a compelling case for a volunteer's most limited resource – time – and effectively prepare them to succeed in their roles? Join us as we discuss how defining and communicating the volunteer value proposition from invitation to onboarding to evaluation can drive volunteer recruitment and retention and move your association closer to realizing its mission.

After attending this session, participants will be able to:

• Define volunteer ROI from the staff perspective, the volunteer perspective, and the organizational perspective.
• Effectively communicate how volunteering with your association creates missional impact and adds value to the member experience.
• Move volunteers from strictly operational functions to strategically supporting the association’s mission throughout the volunteer lifecycle, from onboarding to evaluation.
