STRONG ATTITUDES SUPPORTING SISTAHS

This is not a good organization. I was looking for a virtual opportunity to volunteer in my community and was at first very excited to join their team. This is run from the Executive Director’s home, which I believe she lives with her parents or grandparents. Every Zoom meeting was interpreted continuously by her child. There was a lot of information that was requested up front, but there was a clear lack of direction and coordination of volunteers. I have volunteered for 30 years and this was the worst experience of my life. I was only supposed to volunteer one day a week for a specific task. I was asked to help with grant writing, join committees, work outside and drop off flyers, identify speakers, all outside of the time I was supposed to volunteer. Bottom line volunteers will be overly tasked because they don’t have any paid staff. When I stood my ground, the “ED” tried to nitpick my work. I resigned.
