MY VOLUNTEER PAGE

As you may have noticed, MyVolunteerPage got a makeover during the4th of July weekend.  I encourage you to log on and explore the changes as well as do the following:

1.        Update the “My Profile” tab, specifically, the “Basic Info” section

• Update any contact information that may be out of date
• Add a secondary email so you can receive updates at two addresses if you would like
• Add a picture!  Our staff will be better able to connect names with faces.

2.       Sign up for some “I am available” shifts at the Community Financial Center!

•  Click on the “Sign-up” tab
• There are some new columns with symbols for each activity.  Scroll over the column headings and symbols if you would like to see what they mean.  They are referring to you as a volunteer (Q tells you whether you are qualified to perform this activity)
• Click on a time of day that works for you, then check the sign up box for any days that you are willing to meet with a new client.  OR, you can check the box at the top left of the blue box to be added to the backup list.  We’ll contact you if we need a volunteer at that time and can’t find one.

Thank you!
