Volunteer Experience Survey
Are volunteers well-used, well-supported, and coming back next season?
5 questions · 1 page · about 2 minutes to answer · fully editable after you start
Volunteers donate the one thing they cannot get back, and they stop when the time feels wasted: unclear roles, standing around, effort that vanishes without a thank-you. This survey measures the volunteer experience on exactly those terms – preparation, meaningful use of time, support on the day, recognition – and closes on return intent.
The wasted-time write-in is operational gold for coordinators; the return-intent trend is your programme's real health metric, visible months before the signup sheet thins.
