Volunteers give their time for free, so if the experience isn't good they simply stop coming. These questions find out how they were welcomed, supported and thanked, and whether they plan to return.

Tips for a better volunteer feedback survey
Ask volunteers who stopped coming as well as current ones; they know what went wrong.
Share the impact of their work in your thank-you, with real numbers if you have them.
Keep it short: volunteers already give you their time.
