Follow Up to WIFY by Erin Kirkland

I had an interesting experience yesterday that relates to Megan's post about the "what's in it for me" concept.

As a sponsor of a local organization's upcoming event, I was in a meeting with the executive director and education director to talk about their strategies for obtaining volunteers. Volunteerism is a funny thing; people like to help for all the right reasons, but many hope to gain something tangible from the experience.

Indeed, part of the discussion yesterday was in respect to the "reward" given to those who donate their time to the event. "What do they get?" was the question.
