wish list or volunteer need list
Posted: 07 May 08 12:16 PM
I am looking for a list of all of the things that need to be done or gotten (besides money) so that I can pass it out at a community event and people can agree to take on one small thing.  Has anyone created a list like this that they are willing to share?

Hi Mara!

Our Roadmap and Toolkit can provide you lots of the items for that list. Don't forget to check the new "Community Involvement" section of the Toolkit for lots of ideas of community resources to tap for various needed build items.

Mara,

As you are looking through the TOOLKIT and ROADMAP on the KaBOOM! website, it's a great idea to start breaking down the list of needs/wants/have-to-gets into committees (ie: food, registration/recruitment, construction, youth activities, etc).  It's a great way to get people on board and to be sure that there aren't any overlaps in what people are asking for.  Having one point person, or chair, for each committee is great because each person that is reponsible for an item can contact their 'chair' to give them updates.  All of the chairs can then give you an update for the entire committee.  Using committees to get what you need for your build is a great way to get more people involved and intergrate the most assets possible.

Good Luck!
