Enterprise organization by Points of Light,
recognizing the SPCA of Texas’ volunteer program. A
Service Enterprise is an organization that strategically
leverages volunteers to achieve operational efficiency
and greater social impact. Service Enterprises are
among the top 11% of nonprofits in the country in
volunteer
management
and
organizational
performance. Research conducted by TCC Group and
Deloitte shows that nonprofits operating as a Service
Enterprise are as effective as peers but at almost half
the median budget, and they are significantly more
adaptable, sustainable and scalable.
“Service Enterprise has allowed us to bridge the gaps
between staff in different departments, helping us to
better integrate our volunteers into our critical work
of rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming thousands
of animals in our community,” said Karen Froehlich,
President and CEO for the SPCA of Texas. “The
certification process has also helped ensure that the
SPCA of Texas meets our mission to provide every
animal exceptional care and a loving home.”
In order to become certified, the SPCA of Texas
was evaluated by an external organization, Points of
Light, to determine the efficacy of the SPCA of Texas’
volunteer program. The SPCA of Texas volunteer
program was examined for the following
characteristics: Planning & Development, Leadership
Support, Resource Allocation, Tracking & Evaluation,
Outreach, Funding, Effective Training, Onboarding
& Supervision, Technology & Communication, and
Partnering to Extend Reach. In order to receive the
Service Enterprise certification, the SPCA of Texas
needed to demonstrate excellence in the core
characteristics and participate in a year’s worth of
extensive trainings.
By being certified, the SPCA of Texas has
demonstrated effective utilization of volunteers
to further it mission of helping animals in the North
Texas community and beyond. In 2020, volunteer
contributions and efforts were valued at $5.5 million,
even though from March onward they were not
on-site due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. This
contribution of time made a huge impact on the
organization nonetheless.
