2020 CHANGES TO THE VCC STRUCTURE:
There will no longer be a fee for membership…that’s right membership is now free!
Starting January 1, memberships will be based on individuals, instead of agencies. Unless we hear from you otherwise, we will keep everyone’s name on as a member, but feel free to add more staff that fit into the VCC to the membership. However, we will need to start charging for the trainings (fee info just below), but you can still be a member and receive the updates and information from the VCC to keep in the loop on what’s happening in the world of volunteer coordination TOTALLY FREE. Because there is no longer a fee, membership is continuous and anyone can join at any time.
Training costs:
If you work for an agency that is a member of Cause Collective, each training is only $15. If you work for an agency that is not yet a member, each training is $45. This follows our structure for all Cause Collective trainings. Keeping in mind, you only pay for the trainings you are able to attend.
