As you all know, we have been using VolunteerSpot to notify you of volunteer opportunities. We have recently become aware of a different program, Sign Up Genius, that we believe will improve the volunteer sign up process for everyone.
Sign Up Genius notifies you of volunteer opportunities similarly to VolunteerSpot. You will receive an email invitation to a volunteer opportunity (which includes a direct link to that opportunity). However, once you visit the site for the first time, the changes will become apparent.
First of all, you will need to enter your name, email (If you have more that one, please use the one that this email came to), and a password. (Don't worry - Sign Up Genius will not share this information). This may sound like an annoyance (you only have to do it once), but it leads to greater convenience. Once you have an account, you gain access to the Sign Up Genius Volunteer Calendar. This Volunteer Calendar shows you every available Pillow Volunteer Opportunity, all in one central location. Then, once you find one (or two, or five, or ten...) to sign up for, just click on that day and sign up. It's that easy. Additionally, if you forget what you have signed up for (let's face it, we all have kids, so we all have memory loss), you will not only get email reminders, you can also go to the Sign Up Genius Calendar and there it is!
If you are not yet on our Volunteer Group list, and you would like to be able to view all of the volunteer opportunities at Pillow, please email me at [email protected], and request to be added to the group.
Thank you!
