The Volunteer Coordinator that has been handling efforts since the day after The early February tornado hit Fairview is moving due to a job transfer and we need someone Effective May 1st(or sooner for ease of transition) to take over the position!!
The coordinator's job includes overseeing schedules for telephone coverage for the volunteer desk, determines volunteer needs (via Case Managers from the LongTermRecoveryCommittee), ensures that appropriate volunteers are scheduled to perform the needed tasks, and ensures that someone is available to meet the volunteers, get the necessary forms signed and given instructions to the work site. (Typically on Saturday mornings).
Generally the coordinator makes lunch arrangements with a variety of local vendors/churches so that volunteers are fed on weekends. (Service/Vendors provide the lunches. The coordinator just coordinates who is providing the service on a specific date)
This VC would also be in close contact with/or attend Long Term Recovery Committee meetings to discuss volunteer status and periodically update local media as to needs and/or status. (Usually they come to you)
This is the short and sweet of it. It is an ideal way for a retired person to give back to a community that will make a dramatic difference in a person's life. The Coordinator may set the schedule to accomodate personal needs. This is not a long term position, but we are looking for someone who can commit at least six months and/or until the job is done or a replacement can be found. Call (615)799-2575 for more information.
- it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests
