The Recruitment Engine: How End Overdose scaled their national workforce by 150%

Scaling a national workforce by 150% shouldn't mean doubling your admin time. 📈

Most organizations hit a "growth ceiling" where more volunteers equals more spreadsheets, more manual emails, and more burnout. End Overdose didn’t just grow; they built an engine to handle it.

On April 29th, we’re pulling back the curtain on how one of the fastest-growing nonprofits in the US manages a national workforce at scale.

We are thrilled to be joined by Maddie Ward, COO of End Overdose. Maddie has mastered the art of the "Growth-First" strategy, scaling their national volunteer base by 150% while simultaneously cutting administrative tasks in half.

Stop managing your volunteers. Start leading a movement.
