NWF Volunteer Coordinator
November 18th, 2006
Director of Hiring
National Wildlife Federation
11100 Wildlife Center Dr
To whom it may concern:
I am very interested in the position of Volunteer Coordinator as my career goals and experience are directly in line with this opportunity. My experiences at home and abroad have made me a flexible team player as well as a detail-oriented leader. I am very experienced in training volunteers, meeting program goals and anticipating difficulties before they arise. Having returned to the United States I would like to put these skills to good use in the non-profit world. My background in the Environmental Sciences and interest in public service naturally drew me to the National Wildlife Federation.
This position demands a skilled communicator- someone who can manage multiple projects in a fast paced, professional environment. It requires the ability to respond to direction while also taking independent initiative. Working in Japan as an educator I learned to communicate effectively and diplomatically in an international setting- a skill that served me well in planning and managing projects for my students, teachers and the community. I was able to work as part of a team of teachers in the classroom but also functioned independently to plan and create the lessons we used. With the skills I have gained I can be the caliber of professional required for this position.
During my time in University I was a program director at Madison House, the University of Virginia's largest volunteer organization. For the Science Fair Mentoring Program I dealt with all the administration needs as well as training and serving as a contact for the volunteers. I refined these skills while in Japan during my tenure as a peer group leader and a member of the steering committee. Using these skills I will be able to make an immediate positive contribution to the efforts of the National Wildlife Federation.
My experience with leadership and project management will enable me to make a substantial contribution to position. I believe that a challenging new environment such as yours will provide an excellent opportunity to utilize my skills while working for the public good and our environment. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss in person how my strengths could serve your organization.
Sincerely,
