Promoting volunteerism and raising awareness of the power of service The Global Help Center Volunteer Centres raise awareness of the power of service, encourage people to volunteer, provide information about volunteerism and recognize the contribution of volunteers. They strive to communicate the tremendous benefits found in volunteering and they inform the public about the impact volunteers have on the community. They increase awareness on the challenges volunteers face and on the need to better support their work through financial, legislative and social policies. Some examples of promotional efforts led by Volunteer Centres include celebrating National Volunteer Week, Global Youth Service Day, International Day of the Volunteer (December 5th) and coodinating local events. Building capacity for effective local volunteering through management consulting on volunteer programs and training of volunteers and managers of volunteer resources Volunteer Centres help voluntary sector organizations, other volunteer-involving groups, and individuals that work with volunteers, do a better job recruiting, managing and retaining volunteers. Through trainingnd consultation, they help managers of volunteers and volunteers perform their jobs more effectively. Working with community agencies, Volunteer Centres can determine training priorities, consulting or organizational/board development needs. An effective volunteer program must be structured to protect the interests of the agency, volunteer and client. This requires stringent policies and diligent efforts to ensure that volunteers are matched, supervised, and involved appropriately. Volunteer Centres work with the community agencies to share examples of best practices both locally and from other regions so as to streamline the process while emphasizing protection. Providing leadership and advocacy on issues relating to volunteerism and volunteer programs Volunteer Centres serve as a convener for the community and a catalyst for action. They work through local partnerships and collaborations with various groups and organizations, government, schools, and community leaders to identify needs and mobilize volunteer response. They safeguard the needs of volunteers and community agencies by supporting legislation and policy initiatives on such issues as screening volunteers and integrating people with disabilities as volunteers. Through their provincial and national affiliations (such as with Volunteer Canada), Volunteer Centres communicate the needs of volunteers to the top levels of government. Some examples of advocacy efforts include speaking on behalf of volunteers, convening or participating on committees, and advising volunteers of community needs. Connecting people with opportunities to serve through recruitment and referral of volunteers to community agencies Volunteer Centres provide people with easy access to a wide variety of opportunities to connect to their community through service. Some examples include targeting programs for special populations, offering recruitment and referral services, and managing direct services involving volunteers. Acting as a clearinghouse, Volunteer Centres can assist volunteers and agencies in connecting with one another. Traditionally, Volunteer Centre referral counsellors have delivered the referral services, but increasingly Volunteer Centres are reaching out by providing satellite offices, developing online databases that are accessible through libraries, and/or posting information on the Internet.

Your Charitable Donation Helps us, a Nonprofit Organization, Provide Successful Global Relief ProgramsThe Horn of Africa stands on the brink of a catastrophic famine. This tragedy is especially visible in the Horn of Africa where 1.6 million children under five are affected by the drought and in urgent need of assistance.
World Vision is responding with desperately needed food and care, but we need your help. Your gift will help feed starving children and families in East Africa and surrounding regions. And thanks to nearly $107 million in donated food and grants, your gift today will multiply 8 times in impact! That means a gift of $30 will provide $240 worth of life-saving food to people in need.
