Testimonial
“We had the pleasure of having Carey come and present the Volunteer Management course in-person this spring. The course was invaluable to our volunteer run organizations within the region that have been struggling post-COVID with not just acquiring new volunteers, but also preventing the burnout of those who have continued to serve. Carey spoke extremely well and is incredibly knowledgeable about the topic; her direction allowed attendees to reflect on the way their organizations currently function and was able to generate valuable discussions around changes that they could make to improve how they manage their volunteers. Thank you so much for taking the time to come out and present to us –it was an incredible day, and your expertise was so appreciated!”
– Meg D., Operations Manager, RTO 9
