Description
The Volunteer Infrastructure Project (VIP) inspires community volunteerism, connecting individuals with their neighbors in need. Each selected VIP Fellow will be placed inside one nonprofit to increase the number of skilled and one-time volunteers providing needed services to nonprofits and their communities. They will work to improve volunteer programs, expand volunteer networks, and support long-term program sustainability. VIP AmeriCorps fellows will also train volunteer leaders and recruit and educate teams of volunteers. Fellows will build capacity within their partnering organizations’ volunteer program to provide the support, skills, and resources volunteers need to be successful.
Our Partner Sites Include: Operation Access, Downtown Streets Team (Marin), Marin City Climate Resiliency Program, Agricultural Institute of Marin, and UMCORS (VOAD).
