Required Volunteer Responsibilities

We are so excited that you are a part of the Leadership team! Below are a few things that help make our team run as efficiently as possible!

The Annual Volunteer Membership occurs in July of each year. There is a $75 annual membership commitment. This annual membership commitment can be paid as you submit your application or by July 31st. Renewing your membership ensures your place on the Leadership team.

MilVet maintains records on each volunteer throughout the organization. Records include dates of volunteer service, positions held and duties performed. Volunteers are responsible for submitting and updating information contained in their files to MilVet. We love to share the great things our volunteers do at public events and by signing this form, you agree to the sharing of photos taken at events.

Volunteers agree to commit to a minimum of 8 hours of service each month and at least one event a month within their annual membership period. At the end of the annual term, volunteers may elect to renew their volunteer service agreement with MilVet. Volunteers may request a leave of absence with the approval of their supervisor. This leave of absence will not alter or extend beyond the previously agreed ending annual membership date.

Volunteer attendance is important to the success of our organization. Volunteers will be notified of upcoming events and opportunities through both our private Facebook group and private Google sheet. Communication of whether or not you can attend the events is required, and a lack of communication is grounds for termination of the volunteer's annual membership. Volunteers should give notification in advance on either the facebook group or to a supervisor if they are no longer able to be present at the event they signed up for and try to find a replacement. Volunteers are responsible for keeping track of their monthly required hours. Time not accounted for is the responsibility of the volunteer.

Volunteers will conduct themselves in a professional manner that will protect the interest and safety of all volunteers, staff, MilVet, and those they serve.

Leadership Expectations and Agreement

It is the policy of MilVet to provide equal opportunities without regard to race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual preference, age or disability.

1. Professionalism: I will conduct myself in a professional manner at all times, upholding the values and mission of the organization. I will speak positive of the organization. If an issue arises, I will contact my supervisor or the CEO to discuss my concerns.

2. Confidentiality: I understand and agree to maintain the confidentiality of all sensitive information that I may have access to. This includes all material contained in the Leadership Facebook group, event planning, those we serve and donor information. Protecting the privacy of our clients, donors, volunteers and partners is a policy we take very seriously. Volunteers may be exposed to confidential information in group settings or while working with clients and donors. All conversations and information in private Facebook group/meetings are to remain confidential including names, addresses, phone numbers, emails, and other information. By signing this application, you agree to refrain from disclosing or discussing any confidential information and to return any materials containing private information at the time of separation including name tags, organization email address and business cards. All MilVet photos and material belong to MilVet.

3. Commitment: I am committed to fulfilling my duties and responsibilities in the office and during events to the best of my abilities. I agree to at least eight hours of service per month. Many more hours are available in office and during events, if desired. .

4. Collaboration: I will work collaboratively with other team members, elected official staff, and donors to ensure the success of all programs and events.

5. Representing the Organization: I will be an ambassador for the organization, representing it positively in all professional interactions and public-facing events. When representing MilVet at events or the office, it is important to represent as a MilVet volunteer. In general, MilVet does not seek to interfere with off-duty activities of volunteers. However, the nonprofit cannot tolerate off-duty conduct that negatively impacts the Non-Profit. This would include a volunteer’s individual work performance at our events or the business interests of the Non-Profit, including its reputation.

6. Learning and Development: I will actively seek opportunities for learning and professional development and I am open to feedback and guidance from supervisors and colleagues.

7. Conflict of Interest: I will disclose any situation which involves or may involve a conflict of interest or the appearance of a conflict of interest between personal interests and that of MilVet. 8. Compliance: I will adhere to all relevant laws, regulations, and organizational policies throughout my term as a Leadership Volunteer.
