Hey all-

We are facing a volunteering crisis in America. A recent study conducted by the Corporation for National and Community Service reports that 1/3 of all volunteers each year will not volunteer again the next year.

The study then gives many interesting reasons for why some people choose not to volunteer or quit volunteering after a short period of time. Some of the main findings revealed about non-volunteers are that they choose not to volunteer because they have never been asked, they feel that they are too busy to volunteer, or they have been turned off by a previous volunteer experience that was poorly managed.

The article also gives methods of attracting and retaining volunteers! To check out this new research, click the link below!
