Stage 1: Project Preparation
The volunteer team leader (Account Director) assembles a team of qualified volunteers based on the scope of the project.

  • Service grant teams consist of 3-6 volunteers
  • Volunteers are recruited and screened based on their professional skills
  • Each volunteer is assigned a specific role on a project team, with defined responsibilities
  • Each team is managed by a professional Project Manager and receives high-level support from Taproot Foundation staff
  • This stage typically takes five weeks
