At VolunteerMatch, our goal is to successfully connect volunteers to the nonprofits that need them most.  

As part of  our ongoing commitment to quality service, and in an effort to improve the VolunteerMatch experience for both volunteers and nonprofits, we now ask volunteers to register with VolunteerMatch in order to express interest in a volunteer opportunity.  

This new change helps ensure that accurate and reliable information is exchanged between volunteers and nonprofits, preserves the integrity and functionality of the VolunteerMatch service, and results in stronger volunteer connections.

Volunteer registration allows us to verify the validity of a volunteer's email address, ensuring that nonprofits can successfully  follow-up with the volunteers using VolunteerMatch.  Registration also offers volunteers access to a number of excellent tools and resources available on VolunteerMatch, all designed to save time and improve functionality.
