Volunteer Recognition

Here are some great ideas for volunteer recognition:

  • Banquets and Parties with a Twist
  • Out-of-the-Ordinary Gifts
  • Awards/Special Acknowledgment to Volunteers
  • Trips and Outings
  • Learning Opportunities as Thanks
  • Holiday Events as Recognition Opportunities
  • Involving Families and Employers
  • Ongoing and Informal Ways to Say Thank You
  • Community-Wide Events
  • National Volunteer Week Celebrations
  • International Volunteer Day Celebrations
  • Look Back to Look Ahead
  • Resources for Your Recognition Ideas


Thanks to ENERG!ZE, Inc. for this material.
