Ask about one planning period and a manageable set of activities. Leave room for ideas, but avoid suggesting every requested program will be offered. ## When to use this member interest survey Membership organizations can use this questionnaire before planning their next quarter. It examines future participation preferences rather than donor satisfaction or volunteer signup. For feedback on work already completed by volunteers, use our [volunteer satisfaction](https://www.surveylegend.com/survey-examples-templates/non-profit-volunteer-satisfaction-survey-template/) template. **Create your member interest survey in SurveyLegend** Interest is easier to act on when members can compare realistic options.

Replace activity choices with feasible options that fit the mission. Keep no-preference and not-sure choices so members are not forced to express interest. Confirm accessibility needs through an appropriate follow-up route rather than requesting diagnoses. Before sharing widely, try the questions with a few people from the intended audience and clarify anything they interpret differently. ## Printable member interest survey template Use this printable member interest survey template at a member meeting or mailed member consultation. It includes the same questions and space to write, giving people who prefer paper or are less comfortable online another way to take part. SurveyLegend helps you offer both formats. Tell respondents where to return the completed form and who will review it. Paper answers need a separate review or manual entry process; they are not automatically added to online responses.

A popular topic with a poor time fit may need a different delivery plan. Treat willingness to participate as stated interest, not a registration or attendance forecast. ## Frequently asked questions ### Is this an event registration form? No. It asks about interests before the program is finalized. Collect actual registrations separately. ### Should we list every possible activity? Use a focused list of realistic choices. An open suggestion field lets members raise something you missed. ### Can interest predict attendance? Not reliably on its own. Confirm the event details and collect registrations before making attendance commitments. Nonprofit Organization Surveys and Templates 1.
