Welcome to SCAVA!

The South Carolina Association for Volunteer Administration (SCAVA) has been providing education and support to the volunteer management profession in SC for over 30 years. 

SCAVA works to promote volunteerism across the state, providing personal and professional development to individuals with an interest in the field.  We work hand in hand with others throughout the state to promote the ideas and purposes of volunteerism.

With a network of almost 100 members representing volunteer administrators at all levels, we encourage you to get involved.  SCAVA provides members with networking opportunities, professional development opportunities, research, tools and resources to support you in managing your volunteer resources.  We can help you promote volunteerism in your local area, and get you closer to achieving your organization's mission.
