Celebrate Our Delta Zeta Volunteers

Starting this Saturday, we will all say a huge “thank you” for all that volunteers do for Delta Zeta. Join us in celebrating National Volunteer Appreciation Week, April 5-12, 2014.

While a formal dinner or a presentation at the end of the year awards banquet are fantastic ideas for recognizing volunteers, this week we urge you to consider small gestures of gratitude that can mean the world to the Delta Zeta volunteer with whom you work. Here are some ideas:

·         Write a personalized thank-you note. Need some help? Here are two blog posts about writing a fool-proof thank you note and a charming thank you note.

·         Submit nominations for your advisors for any awards on campus such as a student organization advisor of the year award. Be sure to tell your advisor that you have submitted their name and share with them your letter of recommendation.

·         Consider sending a thank you to her family for sharing their wife/mom/daughter with you. We know it takes time to volunteer!

·         Post some public recognition for your volunteers via your website, Facebook page or Twitter.

·         Tell her in person! So often we don’t say how much we value each other face-to-face. Take the leap and share your thoughts.
