Group volunteering refers to groups from different schools, organizations, or vocational programs that come to Free Geek to learn life and job skills, or just volunteer. They come usually once per week, and have counselors with them that have been trained on different jobs in the recycling area. Some groups have their students check in and later log their hours on their own, other groups might hand a list of students and the hours worked to a front desk person to be entered.
Please note: Groups that want to do the Build Program should be asked to sign up as individuals. We do not host group volunteering for the Build Program.
Groups must volunteer for a minimum of 1.5 hours per session.
Process for volunteering as a group:
- Group applies using online application form (http://www.freegeek.org/group-volunteering-application-form/)
- Volunteer coordinator contacts group leader, coordinates group volunteering schedule, arranges for leader to come in to Free Geek for a tour and training in area of interest, sends group leader links to our online volunteer orientation packet, volunteer applications, and group volunteering information sheet
- Volunteer coordinator schedules group tour. If the group is more than 4 people, an individualized, abbreviated tour is arranged. Volunteer coordinator will schedule tour guide, or will be the tour guide
- Group comes in for tour and hands in already-completed volunteer applications
- Group begins volunteering, hands in time sheet at the end of each volunteer experience.
- Group leader or volunteer coordinator may schedule a meeting after the first couple of sessions to discuss issues related to group volunteering
Feel free to ask our Volunteer and Front Desk Coordinator, if you have any questions.
Group volunteering is tracked through RT. The queue is group-volunteers. Tickets should be titled with the day of the week, the time, and the name of the group. Summer volunteer groups should be titled Summer, day of week, time, name of group.
See the Group Volunteering Policy for more details
