As a volunteer, you will use VS to find and respond to volunteer opportunities that have been created and posted online by Agencies. You can also use VS to read about volunteer events and news in your community.
You may choose to register with VS; that is, create a volunteer account. Registering provides you with access to more robust tools for searching for opportunities, and enables you to track your volunteer hours and write volunteer reflections.
If enabled by an Administrator, you can use additional features of VS to manage additional forms of giving you can provide to supplement your volunteer work. Specifically, you can give some of your time by seeking out and serving on boards of nonprofits, donate money to your Volunteer Center, and donate goods and services to local Agencies.
The topics in this section will help you better understand and use VS
as a volunteer. They should be used in conjunction with the Help
icons () found within VS. You can also contact a Volunteer Center Administrator
for additional help in using VS.
