Hi, my name is ______ and I'm interested in supporting the great work your organization is doing in the community.  Some friends and I would like volunteer to support energy conservation and efficiency.  Is there an area in which a group of dedicated volunteers willing to work a few hours each week could help?

• What is the best way to reduce energy consumption in homes and in our community?
• Do you have information on do it yourself home energy savings and audits?
• Do you provide any training or materials for energy saving in the home?
• Do you have any groups I can join?  What are our local needs in our community?
• Is there literature and information on energy conservation that I can help distribute?
• Are you the best person for me to contact?

Remember to keep track of who you have contacted so you can follow up as necessary. You can use the chart below or create one that fits your project.
