Endorsing Volunteer Skills (VIDEO 1:53)

Volunteers are the lifeblood of any organization. One of the most important things you can do to increase volunteer retention and engagement is to ensure your current volunteers feel recognized, so they continue to come back and spread the word to get others involved!
