GETTING STARTED -OR- VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

Every volunteer must attend a volunteer orientation class. The objective for the class is to provide information on opportunities, expectations and requirements of volunteering in the local Army Volunteer Corps. The mission of Army Volunteer Corps is to promote and strengthen volunteerism by uniting community volunteer efforts, supporting professional management, enhancing volunteer career mobility, and establishing volunteer partnerships to support individual personal growth and life-long volunteer commitment.

TRACK YOUR VOLUNTEER CONTRIBUTIONS

WHY TRACK VOLUNTEER HOURS?
It is important to track your hours because it shows the contribution that Fort Bliss Volunteers make in our community.  Hours reported are used in the Army Volunteer Report. Hours are used to recognize volunteers with special awards and as documentation for jobs and scholarships.  Tracking hours is also a way to track community needs because hours show us where volunteers are putting in their time. Our volunteer hours show others that the Fort Bliss Army Volunteer Corps is an asset to the community and tells a powerful story about you the individual.

The Volunteer Management Information System (VMIS) was developed to give the Army a real-time snapshot of volunteer activities at any given time, at any given installation. VMIS provides all of the tools needed to track AVC volunteer hours, manage and track volunteers, post open positions, print reports, and much more. All volunteer hours will be tracked through the VMIS System. You may visit www.myarmyonesource.com for additional information on this new system.
