VolunteerMatch: An Online Matching Service for Volunteers and Nonprofits

VolunteerMatch (http://www.volunteermatch.org) is an online matching
service for volunteers and nonprofits. More than 100 opportunities are
featured in Boston, Charlotte, San Jose, San Francisco, Seattle, New
York, Washington, D.C., Atlanta and the Twin Cities. Volunteer
opportunities are also available in communities nationwide. To date, we
have matched more than 6000 volunteers!

Nonprofits and public sector agencies register their organization and
list volunteer opportunities directly on the web site. Agencies visit
http://www.volunteermatch.org, click on "Post," click on "Sign In," and
post information about the organization and its opportunities. All
information is entered and updated by the agency, bringing the full
power of the Internet to participating organizations.

Volunteers simply input their zip code and receive a list of volunteer
events that fit a variety of interests and schedules. They then click
on an opportunity of interest, email the nonprofit, and get involved.
The service is free to both volunteers and nonprofits.

VolunteerMatch is funded by individuals, corporations and foundations.
The service has received national nonprofit endorsement from Red Cross
and the United Way, as well as political endorsement from senators
McCain and Kerrey.
