TulsALIVE founders Scott J. Gaffen, CVA, and Brenda Michael-Haggard, CVA have decades of hands-on experiences, professional development and facilitation in all-things-Volunteerism. These basics, just like go-to-tools in any surgical suite, space travel, garden shed, or magician's hat(?), help grow mission awareness, broaden community support, retain invested Volunteers and--ultimately--expand even more resources/$$ for YOUR organization!
This is just one session in this 2025 THE Year to BE with TulsALIVE! to shore up YOUR ASKs (Attitudes/Aptitudes/Abilities, Skills, Knowledge). Walk away with understanding and tactics to more effectively engage volunteers.
In this highly-interactive session, Scott, Brenda and fellow #LoVols share wisdom and insights to add to YOURS. Dive in to thought-provoking discussion, note-taking, and doable, achievable takeaways. Come to connect, reconnect, and build your professional skills!
