现场志愿者 are “on call” for Special Placement/One Time (SPOT) assignments which involve assisting with a variety of short-term projects. 发请帖 maintains a list of SPOT volunteers to contact as the office receives requests for assistance.

Volunteering should not create a financial burden. 因此, you may request reimbursement for certain out-of-pocket expenses if they create a hardship for you.

里程

要求, 发请帖 will reimburse you for travel expenses between home and the volunteer station when using your personal vehicle. 这是25美元.每月00英镑限额. The volunteer time and expense report must be signed by the station supervisor where you were volunteering.

如果你不开车, the 发请帖 staff can arrange for public transportation, which is also reimbursable upon request. Taxi fares are not reimbursable unless you have received prior approval from the 发请帖 office.

餐

If you are volunteering during a meal-time, you may request reimbursement for the meal, up to $7.50. 收取报销, you must attach the meal receipt to your volunteer report which must be signed by the volunteer station supervisor.

保险

When you enroll in 发请帖 you will be provided accident and excess liability insurance that covers you while traveling between home and the site, as well as during your volunteer time. The accident and excess liability coverage are intended to provide higher levels of insurance for you, beginning where your own insurance coverage stops. They are excess, not primary coverage. 这是真的, 太, for personal liability; if you are not covered by personal liability insurance, the 发请帖 personal liability insurance becomes the primary insurance with no deductible.

识别

当您使用发请帖注册时, you will receive a name badge to wear during your volunteer assignment that identifies you as an 发请帖 volunteer.

A recognition banquet is held each year to honor volunteers for their years of service with 发请帖.  Volunteers who have reported at least 24 hours of service to the 发请帖 office during the previous 12 months will receive an invitation to attend the event free of charge.  Other volunteers and guests may attend the celebration for the cost of the meal.

Other events may be held throughout the year to recognize volunteers as decided by the 发请帖 staff when resources are available.
