&lt;p&gt;The manual has been updated to include the latest tech specs to ask your potential volunteers about during interviews, a comprehensive list of worksheets, sample applications, volunteer contracts, and questionnaires to help guide your nonprofit to tech volunteers who can suit your needs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Check it out, feel free to download as a PDF or Word document, print out any of the sample worksheets and customize them for your needs!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And if you have suggestions for additions, changes, or want to add any resources your organization couldn&amp;#39;t live without, &lt;a href="mailto:lendahand@techsoup.org"&gt;let us know via email&lt;/a&gt; or reply to this thread!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
