Simple Ways You Can Thank Your Volunteers

Every day we benefit from our volunteers. That means we should always be thinking of ways to say thank you. Never should we forget to just say the words. But, we always want to offer just a little more when it comes to our volunteers.

This doesn't mean planning a huge party and spending lots of money, that your organization probably doesn't have, every day. In fact, this is more about just the little things that can make a big difference.

Bringing cookies or candies in to work to offer to volunteers. Maybe it's just a tent sign that you set up by the volunteer sign-up book that says some kind of thank you. A notice of which volunteers are celebrating a birthday or anniversary each day.

This don't need to be big things, or even things that cost any thing more than some of your time. These are things to just show your volunteers that are worthy of you remembering the give their time, with no pay.

Most give their time, because they want to, and not to get something in return. But, giving them something as simple as a show of appreciation is worth your time and effort. Remember, without them, where would your organization be?
