Volunteer sign up policy - vote needed (Voting ends at 9pm On Thursday 4/11)-Updated with the VOTE

Updated 4/11 at 9:20 pm
The vote passed. 




Hello folks: 

We are working hard to make this program as fair as possible with how we offer volunteer hours to ALL members. There are plenty of hours in the month for all members. What you see on the sign up genius is not all the hours available for the program. We have pickup drivers, regular crew, and delivery volunteers who are committed weekly to volunteer (They do not sign up on the form online). That being said, folks still struggle to get a slot. 

We previously have asked that everyone do the following: 

1: Wait 24 hours between signing up for volunteer slots
2: Hold off 24 hours if you have your full 8 hours in for the month
3: Adoptees hold off for 24 hours to sign up to help. 

We would like to consider changing this to the following (see BOLD for change suggestion): 

1: Wait 24 hours between signing up for volunteer slots AND  you are are only allowed to sign up for 1 slot per day per household (Exceptions allowed for the Non Shopping cleanup slots). If you are bringing 2 people who can both be of help, you can sign up the same day. 

2: Hold off 24 hours if you have your full 8 hours in for the month

3: Adoptees hold off for 24 hours to sign up to help.
