It sounds like prudent stewardship of resources. Leveraging experienced volunteers, equipping existing volunteer workers, and gently drawing in those who express an interest in volunteering through conversation-- builds relationship. Relationship and connection is one of the primary reason why people volunteer. They want to make a difference, they want to participate in meaningful work, they want to fit with others who are like minded. This is also true of donors, vendors, and educators within the non profit sphere. When R & D dollars are allocated for a product or service to support a non-profit initiative...
