As someone responsible for volunteer coordination for a non-profit, I don't want to deal with people who aren't there due to passion for our mission. I actually developed conflict management training for volunteer coordinators of a certain non-profit that used a lot of college age volunteers who were generating a lot of drama due to their in-dating.

You have my sympathy. At the same time, do you really require passion, or can you get by with commitment? I suspect that most volunteer coordinators will be happy with volunteers who are perhaps not passionate but do turn out when they say they will, arrive prepared, and do the work.

In the specific case of my non-profit, passion is required in volunteers because the role requires a lot of patience that will overwhelm commitment.
>I suspect that most volunteer coordinators will be happy with volunteers who are perhaps not passionate but do turn out when they say they will, arrive prepared, and do the work. Agreed.
