Volunteer's Waiver Statement

{{item}}

Part of our mission is to encourage mutually transformative relationships between volunteers and participants.  Many friendships form when volunteers participate in official, sponsored programs.  To protect both volunteers and program participants, we pay for liability insurance that covers our official programs and events. 

 

However, this insurance protection is only in effect during official, sponsored Abundant Life activities.

 

We are not responsible for unofficial activities that a volunteer and participant chose to participate in outside of Abundant Life programming. Unofficial activities are not required of you and we ask you to use your discretion whether to participate.

 

 

Official, sponsored activities are activities that occur as part of a regular programming held on site or as part of an official sponsored field trip.

Examples: Tutoring at Buford; a 5-8 Club field trip to "Air"; Christmas Store with the tutoring program

 

Un-official, un-sponsored activities are activities not sponsored by Abundant Life and not advertised as being Abundant Life’s activities. Abundant Life does not assume liability or responsibility for unofficial activities. These are activities initiated by individuals acting on their own.

Example: A tutor taking their tutee out for ice cream to celebrate a good grade; A Royal Girls leader taking a few girls to dinner

 

Un-official Activity Suggestions:

1. Communicate clearly with parents/guardians to gain permission and relay details such as what you will be doing, where, and when you will be back. Do NOT rely on children to be messengers. They may forget to tell the parent, pretend they did so, or miscommunicate something. TALK DIRECTLY TO THE PARENT through call or text. You should give the parent your name and phone number, and tell them what time you will return.

 

2. Use your discernment regarding what kinds of activities you do and with whom who you do them. Make sure the activity is safe, age appropriate, and approved by the parent.

 

3. Do not have one-on-ones with volunteers and participants of the opposite gender. Small co-ed groups are allowed as long as there is a female and male volunteer present.

 

4. In general, small group activities are probably safer (more than one child and more than one adult). Children/teens usually feel more comfortable and adults have a helper in case of an emergency.
