Request for Proposal Suggestions and Guidelines:
Weekday evenings and weekend placements are in high demand by our members. Conversely, early morning and after-school times are difficult for our members to fulfill.
The Junior League of Oklahoma City works to develop two types of projects: Variety Pack and Traditional. Variety Pack projects require a minimum of three women, each contributing eight hours to plan and implement the project, preferably to be completed in one day. Minimal training and preparation would be required for this option. Projects of this nature do not have to address the current focus area, Literacy.
Traditional projects enable a member to be trained to volunteer for a total of forty hours during the year. The hours may be concentrated over a week/weekend, the summer, fall or spring semesters or continue throughout the year from June to May. Traditional projects must address our current focus area, Literacy. Your agency can apply for one or both types of these projects.
Volunteer opportunities must also meet the following criteria:
* Project should offer constructive opportunities that utilize the capabilities of the volunteers.
* Project should take place in the Greater Oklahoma City area.
* Project should strive to involve at least three Junior League members working together.
* Project cannot involve any fundraising activities or development of fundraising activities.
* Project should have measurable outcomes.
* Project proposal should address the length of Junior League involvement and the plans for the project to continue after Junior League involvement ends.
