Get Connected Tech Tip: View OUR Volunteer Impact
Our Volunteer Impact Report is available now showcasing the dedicated service of our many volunteers across the agency and across our volunteer positions in 2025. This report features volunteer data, stories, and the names of those volunteers who contributed to our mission and made a difference in 2025. Look for yours inside this year's report!
You also can also view your individual volunteer impact and your volunteer group impact through your volunteer resumes on Get Connected. We'll show you how! Just follow these steps:
1. Login to Get Connected and click "Volunteer Resume" on the right side of your volunteer dashboard. You can also find this on your volunteer profile.
2. Look for the blue "Volunteer Resume" button and adjust the dates to reflect January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025.
3. Click "Go". This will download your individual volunteer resume showing your 2024 volunteer impact!
To view your volunteer group impact, follow these steps:
1. Login to Get Connected and click "My User Groups" from your volunteer user menu at the top right of your screen (next to your profile picture or initials).
2. This will bring up a list of any user groups you belong to. Click "View Resume".
3. Adjust your dates for January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025.
4. Click "Go" to view your volunteer user group's collective impact for 2025. Choose "Export PDF" to download and save a copy if you'd like. If you served 25 or more hours in 2025, you qualify for a volunteer discount! Volunteer discounts are available annually as a thank you for your dedicated service. Volunteers who served 25 hours or more in 2025, can receive 15% off MetroParks programs and routine rentals in 2026. Volunteers who served 100 hours or more in 2025, qualify for 30% off MetroParks programs and routine rentals in 2026, and volunteers serving 200 or more hours in 2025, qualify for 50% off MetroParks programs and routine rentals in 2026. Volunteers who qualify received an email earlier this year regarding their volunteer discount and will receive a thank you card this month with a handy discount card. Keep this card in your wallet, on your fridge, or wherever will serve as a good reminder to use your volunteer discount - you've earned it! Not sure if you qualify? Need help using your discount?
