When you sign up to become a registered volunteer at VolunteerNow.info, you will receive access to several features that allow you to get involved more easily, more quickly, and more efficiently:

• The Volunteer Toolbox

  Perhaps you've seen the volunteer toolbox at the top right of each opportunity profile here at VolunteerNow.info, similar to the one here. The tools in the toolbox come alive, yours to use, after you register.

  Printer-Friendly Version: Once you have found an opportunity that truly interests you, we want to empower you to actually do something NOW with that information. To that end, a registered volunteer will have access to our printable opportunity profiles. Take a copy of the information about the opportunity with you in hard copy form, in a clear, concise, easy-to-read format.

  Save This Opportunity: This feature is perfect for volunteers on the go. You can't always bookmark an interesting opportunity because you are in a computer lab or a machine at work, and that bookmark won't travel home with you. With "Save This Opportunity", though, you can save any opportunities for future visits to VolunteerNow.info. Those opportunities will be saved to your own personal list, ready and waiting for you as soon as you login next time to VolunteerNow.info.

  Email to Friend: Volunteer service can be especially fun and rewarding when performed alongside your family, friends, and colleagues. If you ever find an opportunity that you think would interest somebody you know, you're just seconds away from getting them involved, thanks to "Email to Friend." Simply enter their email address, and the information about that opportunity is immediately on its way! A great way to get your group involved in volunteerism!
