For questions about this Give 5 Nonprofit Application Form, please contact Mike Rivera at Our Lady of the Lake by calling 417-334-2928 x 102 or emailing [email protected].
It is our intention to focus the Give 5 program toward nonprofits whose mission aligns most closely with the following community priorities. Please indicate which of the following community priorities your organization aligns (select all that apply):
Note: It is possible that, if the Give 5 program is successful, additional “tracks” could be created that are focused on other priorities in addition to the ones listed above.
If your organization is selected to participate in the Give 5 program, a representative from Give 5 will work with you to outline your intended “hosting time” when each Give 5 class is delivered to your organization. Your organization will likely have 45 minutes with each class. The class size will be no more than 20 members. It is our intention that your “hosting time” be informative, engaging and, if possible, interactive. We encourage you not to place the class in a room and “talk at them.” This is your organization’s opportunity to put your best foot forward to explain what you do and any volunteer opportunities you have that might appeal to the class members.
What special skills/talents are you seeking in your volunteers, and approximately how many hours per month (i.e. 5-10 hours per month) are you needing volunteers in each skill/talent category?
All members of each class will be provided a binder of information about each of the nonprofit organizations they will be visiting.
If selected to participate, your organization’s executive director and volunteer coordinator will be emailed a document providing summary demographic information about the class that will be visiting. This document will not include personal information about the members of the class, but summary information will be provided.
It is our intention to track the effectiveness of the Give 5 program over time. Selected non-profits will be asked to provide statistical information (number of volunteer hours worked per Give 5 volunteer) and a brief anecdotal report via email every six months.
Via my signature below, my organization is applying to participate in the Give 5 program with United Way.
