Army Volunteer Corps
The Army Volunteer Corps of Fort Drum provides opportunities in
many areas of our community. Give back to the community and make
new friends, some volunteer opportunities even offer childcare.
Volunteers obtain valuable work experience and opportunities for
training to learn new skills, opportunities to increase
marketable job skills and to assume responsibility in leadership
roles, the enjoyment of meeting and working with a variety of
people, the satisfaction of contributing to their community, and
recognition for their contributions. In addition, many Volunteer
User Agencies have child care reimbursement programs and awards
programs to recognize volunteers. There are volunteer
opportunities for everyone whether you want to give your time
every week, once a month or once a year. There are opportunities
to volunteer with your Family, with friends, or colleagues. Getting started as a volunteer is easy: come into the
AVC office
to discuss what you might be interested in and fill out a
registration form.
For information on volunteer opportunities, call the AVC office
at (315) 772-2933 or stop by to find the perfect volunteer
opportunity for you.
Manage, Log and Track Your Own Volunteer Hours - Online
The Army Volunteer Corps has a new volunteer tracking system
online called Volunteer Management Information System or (VMIS).
VMIS is a historical change to the way Army posts, track and
manages volunteer programs. Volunteers can now manage, log and
track their volunteer hours as well as search for open volunteer
positions by logging on to
www.myarmylifetoo.com
For assistance with the use of the site please contact the AVC
office at 772-2933.
VMIS allows volunteers to keep a detailed history of all
volunteer positions held. This new system will unify how
volunteer activity is tracked across all Army posts so your
volunteer hours and experience will easily follow you when
PCSing.
All volunteer activity must be entered into this database in
order to be counted at the Headquarters level. By tracking
volunteer hours The United States Army can utilize the
information from each installation when lobbying Congress to
fund various programs.
