Volunteer Sign-UpAre you in charge of pulling together all the logistics for your church’s upcoming “serve day,” or local volunteer outing? Maybe you’ve always defaulted to a sign-up sheet at the InfoCenter, but you’ve noticed that it’s getting harder and harder to compel the masses to stop by and sign on the dotted line? Try running your sign-up online, with either of these two resources:

http://www.signupgenius.com/

or

http://www.volunteerspot.com/

You get free online signup sheets, volunteer scheduling, and reminder emails or text communications. It’s surprisingly affordable (maybe even free, depending on your needs). Many are finding that these online approaches work much better because of appeals via social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest. Worth a try.
