Retention Begins at Recruitment
Created: 12/02/2025Volunteer engagement focuses a lot on terms like recruitment, onboarding, and orientation but how much do we focus on our welcome and cultivation of belonging?
Often when we think about retaining volunteers, we link recognition and retention. Although it’s true that you cannot have good retention without adequately valuing what volunteers are giving to your organisation, you could argue that more importantly it’s about the recruitment experience.
