Volunteer Assistance Fund
Volunteers are critical to our organization and we are thankful to have interest in these opportunities. The value of our volunteers’ help is immeasurable—both for our organization and for the women, families and children we serve. It is our responsibility and due diligence to carefully screen the people who are volunteering on an on-going basis with our clients. Additionally, in order to comply with state and local requirements regarding adults in childcare facilities each volunteer must submit to both a BCI and FBI background screen.
The cost of each background check is $68.00. We ask volunteers to cover the cost so that we can maximize the funds available for our operations and services. Unfortunately, this provides a “barrier to entry” for many who cannot afford this step of the process.
To address this barrier, the YWCA is establishing a “Volunteer Assistance Fund” to provide partial or full assistance for any volunteer who needs help with the cost of a background screen. We are seeking your support for our Volunteer Assistance Fund, and hope that you will find it in your hearts to support us!
