We do appreciate the time and expertise our volunteers bring to the table pro bono. We will always try to thank you with more than just an email, where possible.
Volunteers are individuals, companies, firms, agencies, etc, working with us to reduce teenage suicide in South Africa. They can be situated anywhere in the world. Volunteers do not communicate directly with sponsors, donors, and other volunteers in the execution of their duties, and report directly to Sonneblom Foundation or one of our executive volunteers.
Executive volunteers are volunteers, but with the authority to manage other volunteers where appropriate, and communicate directly with sponsors, donors, and other volunteers. Executive volunteers do not have the authority to bind Sonneblom Foundation to any contracts or commitments.
Below are some of how we will thank you. We will continue to add to these services as time progresses:
