After you receive my application, what happens next?
When you submit a volunteer application, a “matching” process begins. Our volunteer coordinator will call you to learn more about your interests, skills, and passions. We will also discuss opportunities to learn through on-the-job training. One of the most important topics of this initial call your availability to make the commitment to a volunteer role. We want to support your critical life balance of family, work and daily needs. Our coordinator will discuss the various roles in rescue with you to find best fit. You are then “matched” with the team coordinator who will answer any additional questions and bring you on board. A very happy day for GRRMF!
