Like the rest of the world, COVID-19 has had far reaching impacts for Rosterfy and our clients. With numerous clients forced to postpone or cancel their events, organizations are being challenged to think outside the box and come up with new ways of thinking to ensure that the longevity of their brand, event and/or cause is sustained throughout this pandemic.

For our first webinar, we caught up with Paula Bonaccorsi, National Volunteer Manager, Starlight Children's Foundation Australia. Hosted by Rosterfy's Co Founder, Bennett Merriman, Paula took us through the impacts of COVID-19 within the charity and not for profit sector and the importance of new ways of thinking when it comes to engaging and retaining their volunteers.

With everything that’s currently going on in the world, the importance of communication to remain social and engaged is critical - this needs to include our family of volunteers. 

Rosterfy is excited to be working with Colorado State University to deliver their Student Leadership, Involvement, and Community Engagement (SLiCE) program to connect their student volunteers and alumni with their community.

Engaging Volunteer Workforces

Colleges and university campuses have always been a hotbed of volunteerism. Whether mandated by curriculums, as a way of driving important social connections or a mixture of both, volunteering is a way of life for students. 

Over the summer, Rosterfy has been working alongside charities including the RSPCA and British Red Cross to understand better the current trends facing the sector in the U.K. today, and how future decision making is changing.
