Our Story

Engage is written for volunteer engagement leaders around the world who want to be informed and challenged about volunteering trends and issues. It is published by the Susan J. Ellis Foundation. When the journal began in 2000, we were the first and only electronic publication for the field, combining the best characteristics of a printed professional journal with the explosive potential of Internet technology. Today, we strive to provide thought-provoking information on all aspects of volunteer involvement; tap into an international base of knowledge and experience; and maximize interactions among readers and authors.
