Harnessing the Power of Younger Volunteers

Posted by Philadelphia Foundation on March 30, 2015

Creating strategies to attract and retain young(er) volunteers should be part of your volunteer activities. Millennials, teenagers and pre-teens and even older children have energy and are willing to work for social issues that impact their generation.

By getting younger people to donate their time, nonprofits are laying groundwork for future support on so many levels. Embracing the future with targeted outreach to younger generations should also be part of your board recruitment strategy.

This 2-hour session will present strategies to specifically target younger volunteers for both your volunteer corps and your board. Engaging younger volunteers now will yield a pipeline of future leaders, stewards, donors and your organization’s future existence. It will specifically discuss the value and the care and feeding of the increasingly popular “Young Professional Board,” in building your organization –and the community – now and in the future.

When: April 23, 9 to 11 am
Where: Philadelphia Foundation, 1234 Market St., Phila.
Cost: $36 for Members/$45 for Non-Members
