Volunteer Coordinators

[Jayson Green]

Hello all,
 
I am looking for information on the feasibility of hiring of Volunteer 
Coordinator for my organization.  The issue is as a NPO in New York City 
we are hurting financially.  We need more staff to provide better 
services, but the problem is we can not pay for the ideal amount of staff 
we need.  My thought is if we make someone a volunteer coordinator we can 
get a team of volunteers that will be able to perform many of our tasks at 
no cost or low cost.  I believe coordination of volunteers is like a form 
of fundraising. This person will be  bringing in "labor hours" which 
equates to dollars.
 
If you have any information on Volunteer Coordination or organizations 
that help find volunteers please forward them to me.
 
Best regards,
Jayson J. Green
