Introduction to the Purpose-Driven Vounteer Impact Model

Volunteers contribute to a library’s mission, labor, donations, awareness, and reputation. Yet, reports about volunteers often omit these contributions and highlight only volunteer numbers, hours, and financial values. To bridge this gap, the Purpose-Driven Volunteer Impact Model will help participants to identify meaningful ways to capture and report volunteer value. It provides a holistic approach to demonstrating volunteer impact by linking it to the library’s mission and audiences. This webinar was presented by Dr. Sue Carter Kahl on March 23, 2023.

You can access the closing webinar on this subject where she discusses with two members of a cohort of library volunteer engagement coordinators what they learned and how they implemented the Model: Panel Discussion - Purpose-Driven Volunteer Impact Model: https://getinvolvedclearinghouse.org/training-materials/panel-discussion-purpose-driven-volunteer-impact-model
