This is part of an ongoing research project at UC Santa Cruz aimed at facilitating large-scale volunteer engagement for non-profits. Our purpose is to understand how to empower individuals to contribute to societal issues they are passionate about, and to provide tools that enable non-profits to efficiently coordinate a volunteer crowd to advance solutions for social good. In order to improve the tools we build, we will be collecting information from you when you participate. Any information collected will be kept confidential and only released in aggregated form or used anonymously after obtaining consent from the volunteer. Participation in this study is limited to individuals above 18 years of age. Participation is voluntary and can be stopped at any time. You are free to not submit data at any point in time. There are no anticipated risks from participation in this study. If you have any questions or complaints, or would like to withdraw consent at any time, please contact David Lee at
davidtlee@ucsc.edu. If you have concerns about the project and would like an independent contact, you may also contact the Office of Research Compliance Administration at the University of California at Santa Cruz at 831-459-1473 or
