Is your organization ready to take on new initiatives to grow your volunteer list? Together, let’s grow your list! Presented by Katie Stuckenschneider, Forest Park Forever.

  • Do the Hustle!: Tired of taking hours out of your week to call or email your volunteers with little to no response? There’s a better way! Learn about Hustle, an effective peer to peer text messaging tool to reach volunteers quickly and efficiently. Hustle can help you build authentic relationships with volunteers and drive higher attendance rates than through other channels. Learn about how Hustle can benefit your organization and volunteer program. Presented by Kaelyn Seymour, Planned Parenthood Advocates for Missouri.

  • Share Your Story With Video on a Dime: One of the most impactful ways that we can share our mission and the stories of the lives we impact is by telling stories with video. Historically, hiring a professional videographer has been expensive and requires a good amount of funding and planning. Have no fear- there are plenty of low-cost and free resources that you can use to capture and edit your own impactful videos. Presented by Annie Kuhl, Chief Communications Officer of Saving Sight.
