Make an Impact in the Life of a Child, as you Gain Skills and Nonprofit Management Experience
Be the catalyst needed for nonprofits working with children and families to more effectively recruit, engage and retain quality volunteers. United Way’s Volunteer Manager Corps (VMC) program, developed in partnership with 501 Commons, is recruiting for volunteers and interns this summer with the Friendship Circle, a Mercer Island organization that pairs special needs children that seeks to bridge the gap between special needs and typical youth through shared experience.
VMC Members volunteer about 10 hours a week between mid-June 2015 and the end of September, 2016 and receive:
- volunteer management training and ongoing support
- experience working with a nonprofit organization
- recognition for helping to increase an organization’s capacity to deliver services
- the ability to earn internship credit
- a $400 United Way of King County service award, depending on hours completed.
