About Us
Our vision: In Greenfield, all working age adults volunteer regularly.
Resilient Greenfield supports volunteer-reliant organizations to increase the number and engagement level of volunteers, particularly those of working age. Strengthening connections between volunteers and those they serve will make Greenfield more resilient in general, and particularly to impacts from projected risks outlined in the Sustainable Greenfield plan.
Resilient Greenfield (RG) offers a web-based platform to connect local organizations with volunteers. Organizations list their time-based needs (“events”) and volunteers browse and register to attend and serve. Separate subgroups for a volunteer network and a volunteer coordinator community of practice, and affiliate organizations for sponsors and their employees who give time for community service, provide a simple social network dedicated to building social resilience as we meet the material needs of our community.
Benefits of joining our platform include:
- For Volunteer Coordinators: resources to streamline volunteer recruitment and management, a community of practice with others like you, access to a larger pool of volunteers.
- For Volunteers: easy access to a wider range of volunteer opportunities via browsing organizations and needs to find one best suited to your interests and skills.
- For Business Sponsors: easy ways to engage your employees in community volunteering, where their impacts under your banner are listed and recognized.
