    Table Talk: Exploring Ideas for Volunteer Appreciation Events

    Join us for an open discussion to share creative and not so creative ways to celebrate and recognize volunteers during volunteer appreciation week and throughout the year.

    Instructions for bringing documents about your Volunteer Appreciation Events (don't worry if nothing is in writing, come anyway and explain it):

    1. Please bring written documents that outline the logistics for any volunteer appreciation event you are coordinating or supporting.
    2. You can share this in the chat with attendees. We will teach you how to download the documents.

    Here's a few ideas on what to bring if you can in a digital form, do you have any of this type of information? We would love just to let attendees steal and not start from scratch.

    • Event overview: date, time, location, and purpose
    • Roles and responsibilities: who is doing what before, during, and after the event
    • Supplies and materials list: items needed, quantities, and who is responsible for obtaining them
    • Budget details: estimated costs, confirmed expenses, and any pending approvals
    • Communication plan: messages to volunteers, timelines, and channels
    • Setup and teardown logistics: arrival times, layout notes, and cleanup plans
    • Training outline for staff and lead volunteers assigned to the event

    If you are a non-member of DOVIA and want to donate, choose the $10 option but we'd rather have you as a member. There is also a complimentary non-member option available for this talk.

    This is our monthly training or networking program. Mark your calendars for the second Thursday each month for most months.

Save the Date

DOVIA Sacramento hosts at least one monthly training opportunity the 2nd Thursday of the month as a "Lunch & Learn" at 11:30am PST or a special event such as our Annual Awards Ceremony each Spring. Save these times and dates on your calendars and look for event invitations in your emails and social media feeds.

*AL!VE Academy Monthly Webinars are free for Individual, Agency and Local Association members.  If you registered as a Local association member, like DOVIA Sacramento, please be sure you list your local association's acronym (DOVIA Sacramento ) in the registration code area. The general public is welcome to attend, but will be billed $25 after attending and will receive a copy of the slide deck, recording, and attendance certificate upon request.

  • Important notes: 

    • Registration closes 5:00pm Pacific Time the day prior. 
    • Our Board members are volunteers.  Once we are in the learning workshop, we are participating and not checking registration. So sorry, we won't receive an email or a voicemail.
    • Does your organization block Zoom? Be sure to test for Zoom access days in advance so you don't miss the training. Many people use their personal computers to avoid this firewall issue or schedule with IT services for permission. 
    • We send the Zoom link a day or two before the event and the morning of the event (Pacific Time). Sometimes the access email may go to 'promotions,' 'junk,' or 'spam' folders.
