Please consider me for a Level TWO volunteer position with the Fournier Center for Empowerment. I wish to commit a minimum of 54 volunteer hours for the next year toward supporting and assisting the Center and its mission to empower those in need. I understand that if I am selected, I will receive (FREE of charge) an annual membership into the Center for Empowerment Support Network as well as the entire 12-Week Course of Action. Since ‘product fulfillment’ is handled by an outside company I understand that I will be responsible for the cost of S&H ($9.99).  I wish to commit a minimum of 54 hours for the next year, however I have no need for the membership or course offered above for my participation. Please donate it to those in need.  Please consider me for a Level ONE volunteer position with the Fournier Center for Empowerment.

Strengths: Please list your strengths and be as detailed as possible and only list those items you would enjoy offering as a volunteer; the more we know about your areas of strength, experience and skill, the more we will benefit. For example; it would be helpful to know if you possess people and phone skills, advanced computer skills, writing abilities, speaking or stage skills, technical abilities in other areas such as audio / visual, public relations or marketing knowledge, graphic design capabilities, management skills, organizational abilities, bookkeeping experience and so on:

Preferences: Please list your preferences and be as detailed possible; the more we know about your areas of preference, the more likely we are to make requests of you that you will enjoy. So please list those items that you did not feel confident you could list as strengths, but that you would still like to learn and perform as a volunteer if the opportunity arose, (for example you might say ‘anything involving left-brain activities, or organizing, traveling, talking on the phone, working with children, research and so on):

Weaknesses & Dislikes: Please list your weaknesses and dislikes and be as detailed as possible; only list here the items that you do not wish to do in regard to volunteering so we will know to avoid making such requests of you (for example you might say ‘anything involving right-brain activities, or creating, writing, sales, public speaking and so on):

Responsibilities: Volunteers can become involved in a wide range of activities from assisting with seminars to leading other non-profit agency staff members and their clients through the course. Ideally, volunteers will find their work so rewarding that they will choose to volunteer an hour or more of their time each day and enroll their friends and family as well. However it is possible to volunteer on a project-by-project basis, providing greater freedom and flexibility for the volunteer. Thank you so much for your interest in helping us help others. We will review your application and get back to you as quickly as possible.
