Build Your Volunteer Team: 333 Strategies, Suggestions, & Tips focuses on how to successfully recruit, manage, celebrate, and build a strong volunteer force. Volunteer recruitment is a constant assignment and Build Your Volunteer Team: 333 Strategies, Suggestions, & Tips is the answer to keeping volunteer recruitment fresh, fun, and impactful. This book is filled with eighteen innovatively themed chapters, to include topics about strategy, campaigns, communication, the power of stories, social media, assessments, food and of course fun, just to name a few. Each themed chapter begins with a short, concise, and informative introduction followed by a list of strategies, suggestions, and tips to build your volunteer teams. At the end of each chapter are application and reflection suggestions. Knowing more does not build or grow volunteer teams but doing more of the right things does. Build Your Volunteer Team: 333 Strategies, Suggestions, & Tips will help you renew your passion to grow yourself and your volunteer teams so you can fulfill the purpose of the mission and message of your ministry. With over two decades of experience and expertise, Imani JM Stokes gathered recruiting processes and strategies by researching, implementing, attending conferences, and being in the room with others who were passionate about volunteer recruitment and management. From her years of doing, observing, and gathering, she compiled a collection of strategies, suggestions, and tips to successfully build a strong volunteer force. She has intentionally left many of the suggestions vague for you to scale and developed to fit the size, culture, and budget of your ministry or nonprofit organization.
