Wacky Holidays for Volunteer Fun, Part 2

For the month of June, Appreciate Volunteers is using wacky holidays to celebrate our volunteers. Planning for these wacky holidays may take a little, but we are happy to do what we can for the volunteers. We started off with ideas for the whole month, like National Blueberry Month. Now we continue the food theme in Part 2.

Lots of fun days during the month of July to bring special foods in to the work place. Any excuse we can use to thank our volunteers and recognize the time and effort they put in is what we are aiming for here.

Try July 20th, National Lollipop Day. Decorate a nice large lollipop with a ribbon and an attached card that says something simple like: Thanks to our volunteers. Give one to each volunteer on July 20th. There are plenty of fun days to make use of for your volunteer appreciations. So take advantage of one or two and do a little extra.

This doesn't mean a huge and expensive event if you don't have the time and budget. It can be simple. And quite inexpensive. So don't be afraid of doing small things as thank yous. Make sure to visit Appreciate Volunteers for more ideas.

Thanking Volunteers with Wacky Holidays

It's fun to celebrate wacky holidays and a great excuse to thank our volunteers for their efforts. At Appreciate Volunteers, that just what is going on in the month of June. Of course, these do take some planning, so the holidays for July are being featured. That gives you time to get the celebration planned out.

The month of July gives us several fun ways to celebrate the whole month. National Blueberry Month, Eggplant and Lettuce Month, Mango and Melon Month, and Sandwich Generation Month. Planning for Volunteer Appreciation with Wacky Holidays in July gives you lots of ways to make use of these holidays to do special things for your volunteers.

Some are as simple as bringing blueberry muffins to work for your volunteers. But, another idea takes things further. You can get ideas for having a lunch to thank volunteers and let them build their own sandwiches and name them. Then give them a small, personalized gift of appreciation with their sandwich name on it.

Depending on your budget, you can go all out, or keep it very simple. But this kind of idea can work great for all sorts of wacky holidays. The key here is to do something special for your volunteers in appreciation of their time and effort given to your group or organization. So enjoy those special times and visit Appreciate Volunteers for more ideas.
