Why Magnifyhope.com?
People are busy. And sometimes when they are asked to help with service opportunities, that not only interfere with their schedule, but also do not consider their unique blend
of abilities, they come away feeling extra stressed. They often feel that they were limited in making as big of a difference as they could have. This often results in unfulfillment, and hinders their full engagement.
MagnifyHope.com is a tool that can be used to identify an individual's unique gift mix then strategically pair
it with people's needs. This time proven approach, used by business, sports and the military results in the GREATEST IMPACT. It not only makes the job EASIER for the Project creator, it also facilitates
volunteers being MORE EFFECTIVE in helping others, MORE ENERGIZED through work
that is FULFILLING, MOTIVATING and MEANINGFUL. Because MagnifyHope.com helps an organization to connect their
people to projects that are in their wheelhouse, the work is done FASTER and the
QUALITY is higher. The end result is that both the Project creator and the volunteer will feel MORE ACCOMPLISHED, LESS STRESSED and
MORE SATISFIED.

by timely focusing the right skills to corresponding needs in the community and
the organization.
What makes Magnifyhope.com different?
It's goal is the EFFICIENCY of execution and the QUALITY of results.
Prevents the Project Creator from "Taking anyone they can get".

done, this approach is not efficient, can lead to volunteer burnout and the quality of
work suffers.
How does Magnifyhope.com work?
Magnifyhope.com can be used to create teams at two different levels:
Level 1 - The Organization: Search the volunteer database of the ENTIRE organization/Church... ie. Red Cross Organization).
Level 2 - The Group: Search the DATABASE LIMITED TO ONLY volunteers contained within a specific group... ie. Adult Women's Sunday School Class, etc).
Your organization or groups can use MagnifyHope to create a database of people who are ready
to do good.
Each person provides their contact info, availability, skills, and proficiencies.
Then whenever a need for help arises, the MagnifyHope tool is queried by the
appointed "Organization or Group Administrator".
Utilizing VolMatch, MagnifyHope’s proprietary algorithm, a list of the most qualified
and available volunteers is generated.
The Organization’s or Group's Administrator then uses this list to make contacts in order to
create a super team of hope. A Project Summary Sheet is then created for use by each team member.
A Project Summary Sheet, containing all of the critical project information, is then created for use by each team member
What makes Magnifyhope.com unique?
It STREAMLINES the organization’s process while keeping the work
CONVENIENT and within the volunteer's comfort zone.
Magnifyhope.com is SIMPLICITY. Other websites and tools collect and manage volunteer
information as well. However, they are often complex and typically include
many features the average organization will never need for helping others.(ie. financial data, family info, etc.)

matching opportunities to a volunteer's predetermined availability and skill sets.
The results of a volunteer search and team creation is presented in a
CONCISE format providing all of the important project information in one, CONVENIENT place.
