International Volunteers Manager's Day
AAVA is a firm supporter of the International Volunteer Managers Day . Which is on November 5. We suggest that volunteer managers from across the country write/email to their local or regional newspapers in the days before this date to raise awareness of both the day itself and the profession of volunteer management. To assist AAVA has a letter scripted that you may wish to use.
Good luck – and if your letter is published let us know here at AAVA!
