Volunteer Coordinator Forums - Networking Forums

Volunteer Coordinator Forums are facilitated networking and educational programs for volunteer coordinators, coordinated and run by the Volunteer Center.  Attendees will have the opportunity to meet colleagues, share ideas/programs, and discuss common concerns.  Each forum contains hands on practical applications of common scenarios encountered in managing and coordinating volunteers.  This is a Member Agency program.  For non-Member Agency organizations, you are permitted to attend the forums at a cost of $30.00 per forum. 

Upcoming Dates: (Sessions are hosted at the Volunteer Center (or another location depending attendance) from 2:00 PM to 3:30 PM on the dates listed)

8/28/19 Social media, 2-3:30pm, location: Northampton Community College, Fowler Family Southside Center. 511 E 3rd St. Bethlehem, PA 18015. 

Description: 

A recent infographic from FAMEMASS shows that people are spending an average of 2 hours and 23 minutes a day on social media and that 45% of the population (around the globe) uses social media. That is a significant audience!  Are you accessing it?

We believe that social media is a tool for nonprofits in promotion of their organization's cause and an opportunity to solicit volunteers and donors as well as recognize them.  At the Volunteer Center we have a focused and planned social media calendar to ensure we stay out in front of our audiences as well as generate new followers.  

We will share our insights as well as show some of the tools that we use to maximize our social media coverage in a manageable amount of time.

Social Media session on 8/28 is currently full. Email Sandie at skelly@volunteerlv.org to be placed on a waitlist for it. 

Next session: 11/20/19 Measuring impact/storytelling, 2-3:30pm location: Northampton Community College, Fowler Family Southside Center. 511 E 3rd St. Bethlehem, PA 18015. Registration for this session will be posted here at the end of October.
