The Pledge
Creating Excellent Volunteering Experiences
What is the Pledge?
The Pledge offers groups a tool to inspire and ignite their volunteering programmes. It will help you consider your volunteering programme as a whole and a chance to reflect and improve on practices.
The aim of the Pledge is to give your organisation the opportunity to review your volunteering program and ‘pledge’ to ensure your organisation is offering an excellent volunteering experience within your capacity. The Pledge is a recognition that organisations who have completed the process are delivering a program of volunteering that is striving towards creating excellent experiences for volunteers in all four areas covered (purpose, managing, wellbeing and culture).
How does it work?
There are a series of questions to work through, there is no right or wrong answers. The Pledge is a reflective exercise, and can be done by an individual, or as part of a team exercise.
The Pledge is divided into four sections:
- Purpose
- Managing
- Wellbeing
- Culture
