About the Event
Assist current Volunteer Coordinator with learning all her responsibilities in order to provide backup:
- Liaison for ALL volunteer questions/concerns. But should be able to access leads for info you don’t have.
- Daily monitor your Jeffco Eats email account (which you need to create yourself).
- Respond to emails that are directly sent from the Executive staff, usually to notify them of what openings we have available.
- Answer/reply to all volunteer communication regarding our mission, sign-up confirmations, location details, dates/hours, etc.
- Advertise via Sparks the Change Colorado and Helping Habits our volunteer opportunities (i.e., Wednesday Produce packing; Thursday Drivers when school is in session; Friday Tote Delivery Drivers when schools are not in session; Friday Packing of Totes; special events; new positions, just an example)
- Keep Jeffco Eats Google Drive; Excel spreadsheets up to date for Group Volunteer Dates & Delivery schedule and also List of Corporate Contacts. This Group spreadsheet also includes our delivery drivers.
- Work with groups via email or phone and also manually enter group members, provided by the Corporate Volunteer group liaison into Helping Habits. This requires you to enter anyone from a group listing using the group leader’s email and adding +1, +2, etc. for any additional volunteers.
- Email past volunteers to try and generate interest if you see we are lacking volunteers for ANY event
- Any Spark Change emails must be entered manually into the Helping Habits website, which is used to produce the weekly packing roster (you must establish a link to your new g-mail account so you receive notifications.
- Maintain/Monitor Spark the Change and Helping Habit; our electronic volunteer platform, against the group sign for each week; if we are very close or are maxed; update both to limit any additional volunteers (max set at ?? for our current site)
- Once a month, or if asked by Executive Director, download the volunteers listing from Helping Habit and upload into her Constant Contact database. Login in credentials will be provided
- Verify all volunteers and checked-in; this is remotely done by the leader sending you a picture of the volunteer listing that you have provided them prior (downloaded from HH)
- The day before, download from HH the volunteer listing and “massage it” so it can be sent via Excel/pdf to the Leads for the day. (I can explain to anyone interested). Again, they hopefully provide you with a picture, so you can add to HH those that attended.
- Other duties as assigned by Executive Director and/or Operations Manager; i.e., Excel spreadsheets for statistics, etc.
If you feel comfortable, show up and help, etc.
