VolunteerMatch offers tools to nonprofits across the United States to help them recruit the volunteers they need. Our basic tools are free---and it's so important to keep it that way. In 2015, we saw 1.6million connections between nonprofits and volunteers, which creating $1.66billion in social value! Take a look at all the impressive matches taking place nationwide: http://learn.volunteermatch.org/content/2015-impact-report.
But it's not just about the scale of our website and technology. It's about the individual stories of local, community impact.
Meet Louise.
Louise knew she wanted to volunteer, but didn’t know where. A VolunteerMatch search led her to CuriOdyssey, a wildlife center she had visited the previous year. With her background in science education for children and her love of animals, it was a perfect match. Now, she enjoys keeping the animals happy and safe as an animal welfare monitor. Get to know the amazing work Louise and CuriOdyssey are doing together. View her video story at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8WzS2u42kQ
