VSD Podcast 073: Various Topics In Volunteering

Casey DeLorme and Brent Shintani wrap up 2008 with a conversation about various topics in volunteerism in this special extended version of the Volunteer San Diego Podcast.  We discuss many non-traditional volunteer activities, including utilizing volunteering as a career transition and utilizing business skills such as Marketing or Project Management in volunteer activities.  Casey highlights a recent presentation by Sue Carter, Executive Director of Volunteer San Diego, discussing volunteerism in our current economic downturn.  Brent highlights some of the pioneering efforts in social media as a marketing tool for the organization, including our presence on Facebook, MySpace, and appearances on blogs and podcasts.  We also discuss our recent introduction of Volunteer San Diego to the world of Twitter.
