Use online conferencing to facilitate virtual opportunities
Web conferencing is a great way to connect volunteers and facilitate on-line mentoring, virtual meetings and planning sessions, or to collaborate remotely.
There are a number of web conferencing applications that are available. Some are free, some have nonprofit discounts. Here's links to a few resources:
Zoom.us - Free and paid plans.
GotoMeeting - here's a link to their free plan. They also have paid plans.
Webex - Free and paid plans.
You can include the URL and/or Phone Number for web conferences in either the Opportunity Description, or send a link in an email to volunteers you are engaging in web conferencing activities.
