Webinar: Recruiting and Engaging Volunteers

Written by Niche Academy | Dec 4, 2025 10:05:54 PM

Originally presented December 3, 2025

If you find yourself struggling to find and manage volunteers, you’re not alone. It’s hard to recruit enough people—couple that with the challenge of keeping them motivated and engaged. It’s a recipe for burnout and feeling like you’re spinning your wheels. Imagine, instead, a fully staffed volunteer program with motivated, skilled individuals, allowing you to reclaim your time for the strategic work you’d prefer to focus on.

Join Chris Wong for this webinar/workshop designed to make that a reality.

Together, we dive into the psychology of volunteering so you can better understand why so many people want to help, but simply don’t know how to connect with opportunities. You’ll gain a unique understanding of what truly excites and retains volunteers, transforming passive interest into passionate commitment. By the end of this session, you’ll have a clear, actionable framework for building and sustaining a vibrant volunteer program—empowering your organization to make a greater impact in the community.

In this session, you will learn:

  • Innovative strategies to identify and attract the right volunteers for your cause.
  • How to create an onboarding process that sparks immediate excitement and sets volunteers up for success.
  • Techniques for ongoing engagement and training that foster independence and long-term dedication.
