Get Connected Tech Tip:

Using Search and Filter to Easily Find the Right Volunteer Opportunities for YOU!

We are often asked - "Is there an easier way to find the volunteer opportunities I'm interested in?" The answer is "YES!" You can quickly and easily find the volunteer opportunities you are most interested in by using the "Search" and "Filter" tools available to you under Opportunities on Get Connected. You can search by keyword or phrase like "fishing", "horses", "Cox", or filter by Volunteer Positions like "Animal Care", "Gardening", or "Programming". You can also sort the results alphabetically. These tools will help narrow down the opportunities you are seeing allowing you to get to the things you are most interested in.
You can also FAN the Volunteer Positions you are most interested in to receive a weekly email from Get Connected of volunteer opportunities, trainings and events that you are most interested in. Click here to FAN the Volunteer Positions you love today!
Learn more about finding volunteer opportunities and using our Get Connected site in the Get Connected Site Training for Volunteers available in the Volunteer Training Library here.
You can also join us at an upcoming Volunteer Open House to learn more or contact us at volunteer.services@metroparks.org.
