Message from International Volunteer Managers Day ...
Celebrate the Profession of Volunteer Administration
Every day, volunteer administrators connect people, purpose, and community. They inspire action, mobilize talent, and create opportunities for individuals to make a meaningful difference. International Volunteer Managers Day (IVMDay) is a global celebration of these dedicated professionals whose leadership makes volunteerism possible. Since 1999, IVMDay has recognized the vital role volunteer managers play in strengthening organizations, empowering volunteers, and building stronger communities around the world.
On November 5, we invite organizations, volunteers, and community leaders everywhere to join us in celebrating the people behind the volunteer experience. Together, we honor their expertise, commitment, and impact - and champion the profession of volunteer leadership. Join the global movement and help shine a spotlight on the leaders who make volunteerism thrive.
Virtual Celebrations
Join volunteer engagement professionals, organizations, and supporters worldwide to celebrate IVMDay. Whether you're looking to learn, connect with peers, share ideas, or simply take part in the global celebration, you'll find opportunities to participate from wherever you are. To mark this year's celebration, IVM Day is hosting free virtual events across three different time zones on November 5, making it easier for volunteer leaders everywhere to connect, learn, and celebrate together.
