Boomer Volunteer Engagement - Collaborate Today, Thrive Tomorrow
by Jill Friedman Fixler and Sandie Eichbert, with Gail Lorenz, CVA

Boomer Volunteer Engagement: Collaborate Today, Thrive Tomorrow makes a vital connection between the desire of Boomers for social purpose and the need of nonprofits to survive and thrive. This guidebook provides a map for nonprofits that want to move beyond the limits of staff-driven organizations. It explains exactly how to transform volunteer roles to engage Boomers and how to keep them interested.

Those who adopt the principles in this book will help create a new model for the second half of life, but more important, they will reap the benefits of Boomer energy, experience, and talent to meet their missions. They will reach more children, build more affordable homes, treat more sick people, and engage more allies to support their work. They will be better positioned to succeed.

What Others Say:  "Tapping into the experience, passions, and skills of the Boomers will revolutionize the civic sector.  This book is a framework and guide to unleashing that power.  If we can follow the recipes of this book for volunteer engagement, we can literally change our world through the talents of our most powerful resource -- our people."  Michelle Nunn, President & CEO - Points of Light & Hands On Network
