Are you a 2010 Volunteer?

Check out this cool session from our friends at Greenlights: Are you ready for the new volunteer? The new volunteer is innovative, creative, multi-generational, has a strong cultural identity and is ready to lead and serve. Understanding volunteer trends, communities of color, culture & community engagement are essential to any organization. A multi-cultural approach to community engagement is a process of building community, relationships, & trust with multi-cultural communities.

Multi-Cultural Engagement utilizes authentic engagement strategies that create advocates for people, neighborhoods, nonprofits & issues within communities. It is an inclusive, innovative & culturally relevant approach that informs, educates, engages & strengthens communities.

Whether you’re looking to engage the new volunteer (project-based to skill-based), board members, or develop relationships with multi-cultural communities, this session will provide the tools you need to get started.
