Doing More With Less With VSD

As many of us are forced to do more with less, volunteers - and their effective engagement – are even more important for nonprofits and civic groups. In response, Volunteer San Diego has re-launched its Community Organization Membership. We need your help in inviting your nonprofit and community group partners to join today. As a community member, your promotion of this membership demonstrates that you value high-impact volunteer programs and what they can do for an organization’s success, and educates your partners about this value.

We are fortunate to work with The Parker Foundation on this initiative. Through their generous challenge grant, membership is even more affordable (only $50 in year one).

Membership benefit highlights:

• publicity: posting of volunteer opportunities in the Union-Tribune and other media outlets
• training discounts: three nationally-recognized experts in volunteer engagement are presenting with VSD in the next six months
• access to corporate partners and funding: priority referrals for corporate volunteer projects managed by VSD
• recognition for volunteers: free museum passes during April each year

The value of the package is over $6,000! With the Parker Foundation grant, the cost is just $50 in year one, $100 in year two, and $150 in year three. A three-year commitment is required.
