Very comfortable with online opportunities.
Passionately against home improvement fraud.
Ready, willing, and able to share information against the same.
Description
This opportunity is exclusively online from anywhere you are in US. The free downloadable homeowner’s anti-home-fraud guide is the HGRBS "Service Booklet." It contains links and other vital information which can help private home residents decide better about building tradespersons (such as home improvement contractors). There is no fee or sign-up requirements in order for residents to access and download.
The nonprofit is a free consumer information service. It realizes that a main reason residents are defrauded is that we do not know how to prevent it. The Service Booklet has 2 basic function s to help remedy this shortage of reliable preventative information:
1. increasing awareness among private home residents to enable us to make safer decisions about those we hire.
2. ins piring the same to more self-empowerment for learning how to accurately distinguish between good and bad contractors.
Volunteers are always needed to spread the word about the Service Booklet to more residents. Your part would be to volunteer online sharing one email (not batches) to each different community association you think would be most receptive to sharing the information about it with other residents. The online service area you choose could be local, state, or national. You choose the range of community associations you serve for sending each an email about the Service Booklet. If you are fine with just local community associations - so be it.
There are no commitments. Volunteers can do our part spreading the news about the booklet once, or several times. If you would like more information about the nonprofit’s pro-private home values before making a decision, please browse: HGRBS.
But if you are already decided on touching bases to get more details on this social opportunity please feel free to connect with HGRBS Special Assignments for more details via Volunteermatch clearance. This helps the nonprofit know volunteers meet all basic requirements.
