In the late 1990s, I co-wrote The Virtual Volunteering Guidebook with Susan
Ellis. It is a free manual to help organizations involve online volunteers, as
well as to use online tools to support all volunteers. I am currently revising
this Guidebook, and as part of my efforts, I've created an online survey I hope
you will consider completing:
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=8qNBlAysAcLk8JcRLjk5zg_3d_3d
I'm inviting anyone who has ever have been a volunteer, OR anyone who has ever
worked with volunteers in *any* capacity -- side-by-side or as a manager/primary
staff contact -- to complete this survey regarding the use of online tools to
support volunteers, to help me in my efforts to revise this guidebook.
By "volunteer", I mean someone who has provided some kind of work support
without pay to a nonprofit organization, community-based group (such as a
school), or government initiative focused on the community (such as a
city-sponsored park cleanup).
When talking about your experience, you can talk about more than one
organization. But remember that most questions relate to your experience only
regarding volunteering or working with volunteers.
Please note that this survey is NOT limited to any country or region.
I plan to share the results in the next edition of the Virtual Volunteering
Guidebook. To know when the guidebook is released, please subscribe to my blog
or to Tech4Impact (more details below).
Thank you for completing this survey! Feel free to forward this email to others
-- other staff members, volunteers you work with, colleagues outside your
organization, anyone!
