3) How do I get my group signed up?
- First, please send an email to volunteer@hamiltoncounty.in.gov; include the name of your group, the project leader, and his contact information (including email).
- Tell your group about the project. Each volunteer must do his own sign up. Here's a few ideas for sharing sign up information with your group:
- Select the opportunity you want to do, and sign up for it. The final page is a Thank You page. Click on the link "Tell Others"; which should create an email that includes a link to the opportunity. Edit the message as you wish; add the email addresses for your participants, and "Send".
OR
- Copy the web address from the web page that is about this specific opportunity. Paste it into your email and add the details your people will need to know. Here's a sample email to help you get started (replace the items in parenthesis):

Looking forward to seeing you there,
