We don't have any solid data regarding volunteer hours; while we've collected some information about individual volunteer engagement as part of our strategic planning process, it's not a statistically significant sampling at this point. Having said that, we're planning to prepare a more detailed volunteer plan in the next month or so, which will provide a better picture of our anticipated volunteer support needs for the coming year.
Can you quanitify the amount of volunteer and staff hours last year? Do you have goals or projections for the 14-15 year?
I know the WMF makes use of CiviCRM.[1] I’ve heard good things about it. It might be worth playing with to try to track volunteers and the time they have committed a bit better for the next year.
Thank you, Derric Atzrott
