Hello John,
Happy International Volunteer Day! International Volunteer Day is celebrated on the 5th of December yearly and started as an international observance mandated by the United Nations General Assembly in 1985. International Volunteer Day acknowledges volunteers and the spirit of volunteerism at the local, national, and international levels. Here at Action Network, we are very thankful for the work of our partners and their volunteers.
We are proud of our tools we developed to assist our partners in their outreach to volunteers and are hosting a webinar on Verified Opens with Action Network this Friday. Please join Director of Product Mari Vangen-Strom and Engineer Amy Chin-Lai as we talk about open rates and run through our new verified opens feature and how to use it. You can register here.
As we wind down the year and plan for next year, please join our upcoming trainings and check out our recent blog posts, including learning about our integration with Lunda. You can follow us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn for updates from our partner community and examples of how folks are using the tools to build power.
In Solidarity,
Natalia Galvan
