Classifieds portal Geebo.com has struck a deal with VolunteerMatch.org to publish listings of volunteer opportunities across the U.S.

It’s a distribution first for VolunteerMatch.org.

“We are excited about this new opportunity to work with VolunteerMatch.org to help build and support communities,” said Geebo.com CEO Greg Collier. “Not only does volunteerism strengthen and revitalize our communities, but in this time of high unemployment, volunteering may also give the individual jobseeker new ways to connect with organizations — perhaps even getting a foot in the door that could lead to a new job down the road.”

Geebo.com, which usually charges $75 for recruitment ads, offers free postings to nonprofits. It also has provided free advertising for causes such as the Hurricane Katrina disaster, Samoa Tsunami and Haiti Earthquake relief efforts, and even waived its $75 employer job posting fees during a period of particular national economic challenge.

“While our focus at Geebo.com is classified advertising, we have always been intentional about supporting positive community activities, providing exceptional value, and contributing in meaningful ways to the 145 cities we serve across America,” Collier said.

Collier recently sat for a very candid interview about his 10-year-old company, its growth and future, and his philosophy concerning classifieds. The video is on YouTube.
