After the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, it’s not uncommon for volunteers to lose their enthusiasm and drive. As a result, it’s important to find ways to re-engage your volunteers and get them excited about volunteering again. So how can you start re-engaging volunteers after a break?<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"re-engaging<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

First of all, you should define the problem. Volunteer engagement isn\u2019t always easy, especially if your organisation has had volunteers take breaks from their terms of service. But if you identify exactly what the problem is, it’s easier to come up with solutions tailored to you and your volunteers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Secondly, you should set goals before you start. If your goal is to have more effective volunteers who stay longer than [x] months at a time, then that should be reflected in all aspects of their experience with your organisation. Starting with their onboarding process, through to training sessions and regular check-ins or evaluations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remind them of their impact<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One way to reengage your volunteers is to focus on the impact that their work has on the organisation and the community. Remind them of the difference that they are making and the reasons why their contributions are so valuable. You can also highlight any recent successes or achievements that the organisation has made, and how your volunteers played a key role in making those achievements possible.<\/p>\n\n\n

Feedback for a volunteer left via TeamKinetic’s volunteer management system.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Through TeamKinetic, you can reward volunteers through HourTrades, custom reward badges, or simple \u2018Thank you\u2019 communications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Offer exciting new opportunities<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Another way to reengage your volunteers is to offer them new and exciting opportunities to get involved. This could include working on a special project or event, taking on a leadership role, or learning a new skill. By providing your volunteers with fresh challenges and experiences, you can help them stay engaged and motivated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also try to make the volunteering experience more enjoyable and rewarding for your volunteers. This could include providing regular recognition and appreciation for their hard work, offering flexible scheduling options, and creating a supportive and inclusive volunteer community. By creating a positive and engaging volunteer culture, you can help your volunteers feel valued and connected to the organisation.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

With TeamKinetic, you can utilise our many opportunity creation options to create something that stands out to your volunteers and will help them feel excited about getting back into volunteering with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reach out individually <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Finally, consider reaching out to your volunteers individually to check in with them and see how they’re feeling. If you can put together a list of disengaged volunteers, you may want to consider asking them if there’s anything specific you could do in order for them to return. Perhaps they need more support than other volunteers with similar roles, or maybe they just need some time away from volunteering altogether. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This can be a great opportunity to listen to their feedback and address any concerns they may have. You can also offer support and guidance to help them overcome any challenges they may be facing. By showing that you care about your volunteers and their well-being, you can help them feel more engaged and motivated to continue volunteering.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

TeamKinetic\u2019s search filters allow you to find those volunteers who seem to be disengaged. Reaching out to them directly can help them feel valued and like their work for you makes a real difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In conclusion, re-engaging your volunteers after the holiday season is crucial for the success of your organisation. By focusing on the impact of their work, offering new opportunities, creating a positive volunteer culture, and providing individual support, you can help your volunteers regain their enthusiasm and continue making a difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
