“Through their volunteer portal Sonoma Valley Volunteers, Sonoma Valley Collaborative provided more than half our volunteers for our food distribution days during the 2020 shelter-in-place. Many other nonprofits were also able to provide direct crisis services in the early months of the pandemic because of Sonoma Valley Volunteers.”

Maricarmen Reyes, Sonoma Valley Community Health Center,

“We at Sonoma Valley Hospital are very grateful for our Sonoma Valley Volunteer heroes and their dedication, determination, and selfless acts of kindness during such unprecedented times. Without this assistance, we could not have staffed the initial testing and vaccinations clinics for Sonoma Valley. Invaluable efforts and great accomplishments were achieved by our amazing volunteers.”

— Celia Kruse de la Rosa, Sonoma Valley Hospital

Here is some sample text. Adapt as you need.

Sonoma Valley needs a new volunteer force.

The majority of Sonoma Valley’s legendary volunteer force is 60+. The COVID-19 pandemic is creating unprecedented community needs. While our community’s core volunteers shelter in place, Sonoma Valley’s service providers—governments, businesses, and nonprofits—must come together to recruit younger volunteers to safely meet our community’s evolving needs.

Join Sonoma Valley Volunteers, an unprecedented effort to connect novel volunteer opportunities with a new volunteer force.

Thanks to Sonoma Ecology Center and Sonoma Valley Collaborative (formerly Sustainable Sonoma), in partnership with the City of Sonoma and the Sonoma Valley Food Security Task Force, Sonoma Valley Volunteers, community organizations and connect with volunteers to respond to the COVID-19 crisis.

 

Sonoma has been blessed with an extremely powerful, proud, and active community of experienced volunteers who serve many important roles in our major non-profits.

Unfortunately, in light of the Coronavirus Pandemic, many of these volunteers are at higher risk and must shelter in place reserving their volunteer efforts to activities they can do from home.

Enter www.sonomavalleyvolunteers.org a website dedicated to the task of raising a new army of volunteers and finding important longer-distance roles for the more experienced members of our community who must, for the time being, shelter in place.

www.sonomavalleyvolunteers.org is a portal where nonprofit organizations can list their volunteer opportunities and new volunteers can easily find ways to help in our community. And we need the help!

We need volunteers to deliver medicine and meals, build care packages, build web pages, drive people to appointments, and many other tasks!

Please check out www.sonomavalleyvolunteers.org today! It will update daily and new opportunities will constantly become available.
