SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

Community Partner Program builds capacity for its 150+ members through: - Technology: Post, manage, and track volunteer opportunities via an online calendar at HON.org, which is accessed by nearly 11,000 unique visitors per month. - Training: Volunteer program troubleshooting, brainstorming, technical support, and community partner consulting sessions led by HON's volunteer management experts. - Increased visibility: Highlights volunteer events, in-kind donation requests, and court-ordered referral needs to 100,000+ ‘friends’ and followers via HON's website, social media, and newsletter. HON’s Corporate Partner Program connects community-minded business with opportunities to give back through: - Volunteer Event Management: Honors the size, interests, and budget of the business client through the creation of customized days of service that build capacity for a benefitting community partner. HON manages all project planning, supply procurement, and day-of management to support both the community partner and corporate client. Projects include facility renovations, construction projects, art installations, direct service, and more. - Volunteer Placement: HON-curated volunteer calendars that place teams at multiple agencies on a single day of service or throughout the year. Special Events: The Mary Catherine Strobel Volunteer Awards recognize Middle Tennessee volunteers who give their time and talents to improve the community. Disaster Preparedness and Response: HON supports Disaster Preparedness and Response for the Mayor’s Office of Emergency Management as the designated volunteer activation partner for the city’s Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan. GeekCause: GeekCause matches Nashville’s most talented techies with community partners in need of their services.
