Volunteers are more than just helping hands — they are powerful drivers of nonprofit sustainability. From running thrift shops and serving as docents to boosting memberships and building donor pipelines, volunteer programs can unlock diverse revenue streams while strengthening mission impact. This webinar will explore innovative ways nonprofits can strategically design, manage, and leverage their volunteer programs to maximize both financial and social returns.  

By attending, participants will learn how to:

1. Identify revenue opportunities within volunteer programs, including earned income (tours, shops, events) and donations.  

2. Learn behavioral influences that drive giving (timing, social norms, and identify)  

3. Measure and communicate the ROI of volunteers to boards, funders, and stakeholders.  

4. Implement practices that convert volunteers into donors, customers, or ambassadors without losing sight of mission.  

5. Discover real-world examples of nonprofits using volunteers as engines of both revenue and growth.
