Over the course of an 11 month/1700-hour term, each Volunteer Infrastructure Project (VIP) Fellow will recruit, train, and retain 50 volunteers; build business partnerships for financial and volunteer support; and build capacity within the placement site's volunteer program to provide the support, skills and resources volunteers need to be successful. VIP Fellows will increase the number of high-value (skilled and corporate) volunteers (HVV) providing needed services to children and families in high need communities. Expected impact across California: [1] Infrastructure will be built in organizations by recruiting, screening, and training 2,500 HVV and 2,500 one-time volunteers (50 total volunteers per AmeriCorps member) [2] Business partnerships will be established and maintained to provide funding, in-kind donations, and corporate volunteers to Placement Sites. As a VIP Fellow, you will be part of a team, working to coach and support a cadre of HVV. Your primary role is developing the volunteer program at your site, bringing resources of highly-skilled volunteers to children and families in need. You will spend time in the community building partnerships and forging lasting relationships. This AmeriCorps position is a valuable opportunity to develop and apply your leadership and community organizing skills to make a lasting difference in the local community. Fellows will gain exposure to the nonprofit sector and will be able to expand their career skills while giving back in a meaningful way. United Way of Monterey County (UWMC) is looking to recruit one VIP Fellow for the 2015-16 program year.
