Besa's Nonprofit and Volunteer Teams
How can Besa support my nonprofit with volunteers?
Besa’s Nonprofit Partnership team works directly with you to understand your volunteer needs and challenges. Then, our Volunteer Experience team will collaborate to curate volunteer opportunities and ensure community members are showing up when and where you need it most.
Recruit and Manage Volunteers
Volunteer management can be time consuming. We’re here to help.
Community members can find your organization’s meaningful volunteer experiences on Besa’s Impact Platform. Besa’s team keeps close tabs on every volunteer experience to ensure shifts are covered and to promote shifts that need additional support.
Amplify Capacity
Fulfill your mission while we meet ours—connecting people to community service.
Your team is focused on mission-critical work. We get it. Besa volunteers know that community service requires effort! When volunteers sign up on the platform, they’ll see exactly what to expect—and they’ll show up ready to do good so your team can hustle harder on other tasks.
Expand Outreach
When more people hear your story, they’ll spread the word.
Besa’s team activates both community volunteers and support from employees through our business partnerships. We’ve seen volunteers become passionate nonprofit advocates, board members, and more! We also love to share stories of impact about our nonprofit partners as we do more good, together.

Relationships
At Besa, relationships are critical. We’d love to hear about your organization’s initiatives and programming to determine the best ways we can provide volunteer support. And then keep the conversation going as your nonprofit grows and volunteer needs change.
Experiences
Our team is not only committed, we’re creative! Let’s connect to share ideas and discover ways we can work together. While volunteer experiences for up to 20 people is our sweet spot, our team also supports donation drives, at home experiences, large groups, and more.
Leaders
Volunteer Leaders are just that—experienced volunteers who are ready to lead your Besa group. They’ll handle volunteer check-in and provide support to both your team and Besa volunteers. All Besa volunteer experiences are available for volunteer leaders to sign up.

They add capacity. They add attention to detail. They add a level of professionalism. And they also give us confidence that the volunteers we’re going to work with have an understanding of the work we do and the work they will do when they’re with us.

Besa has been a blessing. The work at Star House serving youth experiencing homelessness is often behind the scenes. Besa is always willing to help out where we need it most. Whether it's sorting clothes, wrapping food or even just cleaning, Besa volunteers do it with pride and cheer. Being an organization that is on the "frontline" it's comforting to know that organizations like Besa have our back.

We are so grateful for your organization and all of the wonderful volunteer groups that you send our way–the OCNA group was no exception. I am still blown away by the amount of work they completed in just a short amount of time! Amazing!
