Internship Responsibilities:
As part of the Columbus Foundation Summer Fellowship Program, I spent the
past 10 weeks working at the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Ohio
(RMHC). The main project that I was
given for these 10 weeks was to create a Volunteer Stewardship Plan. In
essence, I was identifying each and every point in a volunteers ‘lifespan’ that
RMHC would send a note of thanks or appreciation. Before my time at RMHC, I had
very little experience or knowledge about Volunteer Management.
What I Learned: From
managing groups of volunteers from L Brands, Nationwide Insurance and Bath
& Body Works to volunteering at the Thirty-One Gifts Conference, I have developed
quite an understanding of volunteer management. By working to develop a
fully-fledged Volunteer Stewardship Plan, and thus creating materials and
processes to support this plan, I have gained an expertise of stewardship
practices.
Of all my experiences working in
non-profit organizations, I have never experienced such a warm and welcoming
community. Every single staff member, volunteer and donor is enveloped by a
passion for this House and the families that it serves.
