    Description

    About the Ron Howell Foundation (RHF) At the Ron Howell Foundation, we empower the next generation of IT leaders. We believe in the power of technology to solve local challenges and change lives. From delivering tech to shelters to facilitating AI literacy workshops and career training, we provide the tools individuals need to succeed in the business and information technology sectors.

    The Role We are looking for a Volunteer Operations Coordinator to serve as the facilitator of our volunteer community. You will be the primary link between our internal operations team and our volunteer pool. Your goal is to ensure that our dedicated supporters are well-informed, effectively deployed to local events, and—most importantly—feel connected to the impact we are making.

    What You’ll Do

    • Operations Sync: Attend RHF virtual operations meetings to understand our current goals (e.g., upcoming workshops, scholarship drives, or technology distribution events).
    • Volunteer Deployment: Manage a pool of volunteers, matching their skills and availability to specific needs like staffing community booths, assisting at workshops, or helping with outreach.
    • Community Engagement: Serve as the point of contact for volunteers. This includes sending follow-up emails, providing event logistics, and ensuring volunteers feel appreciated after their shifts.
    • Streamline Processes: Help us refine how we track and communicate with volunteers so that tasks like "booth staffing" or "email follow-up" are simple and rewarding experiences.

    Who You Are

    • A People Person: You enjoy connecting with others and helping people find where they fit best.
    • Organized & Reliable: You are comfortable working in a virtual environment and can manage a simple database or spreadsheet.
    • Mission-Aligned: You believe in RHF’s mission to foster IT leadership and community-driven technological change.
    • Proactive: You don’t wait for tasks; you look for ways to make the volunteer experience smoother and more impactful.

    Why Join Us?

    • Gain behind-the-scenes experience in non-profit operations and community management.
    • Become part of a foundation that has successfully empowered 150+ individuals and is growing rapidly.
    • Flexible, remote commitment that fits into a busy schedule.
