Requesting a nonprofit communications professional or someone with experience in communications or public relations, to write a non-profit Communication Policy for US Servas.
Great volunteer opportunities open now:
Technology Chairperson
Amazing opportunity to put your tech skills to work: US Servas is integrating with Servas International’s platform (ServasOnline)! We need you to be the new liaison with our worldwide Online team supported by the office staff and Tech Committee, engage with third-party vendors, and oversee the integration and related technology needs: our online payment system, membership database, US Servas website, etc. This leader gets to take the torch of a hard-working team to the finish line!
Social Media Coordinator
Feel great about being at your screen: Help volunteers in all our committees to improve their skills using social media. We need some tech training but also planning and coordinating of our activities so we may reach existing and potential members better without overwhelming them with repeat postings (or looking as if we were clumsy!). You would be part of the Communications group and work closely with the Marketing Lead person.
Marketing Lead
Are you ready to share the excitement about our cause and our growing non-profit with the world? Servas is unique but not well known, and we must change that! Be part of the Communications group, one of our most active committees, and help them strategize about best media outlets, language and timing.
Are you skilled in peaceful communication?
Our organization’s structure is growing and changing, and it deserves some TLC: We would like someone to develop or adapt a communication policy for US Servas that reflects our common desire for peace and the acceptance of many differing views and opinions. If you are a nonprofit communications professional or have experience setting up such guidelines for organizations, your input would be very welcome!
Coordinators for Bylaws Revision
If you like to apply your sharp, analytical mind for a good cause and enjoy language, you’ll want to be here, at the center of where all parts of an organization interact. We would love to have you on this fairly new team that is just setting up its procedures. It’s helpful but not required if you have a background in non-profit management, law or editing.
Fundraising
You’ve been there, right: not enough money to implement great ideas, but you’d rather find solutions than complain? Whether you’re an old pro wishing to be involved in a good thing or you want to learn this important skill, we would like your help. We have a Strategic Plan being implemented by experienced leaders and a whole new crop of volunteers with fresh ideas. This is an exciting time to reach out to high donors and foundations, and support members in organizing events. The fundraising volunteer will work directly with the Board Chair and the Office Administrator.
Organizers for Peace, Social Justice & Environment
Brand new initiative in response to member requests: This group will work closely with our experienced UN representatives and our Peace & Social Justice Secretary. We are looking for 5 more volunteers who can communicate how social justice and environmental degradation are related to peace for the purpose of building a larger, active movement among our members. The goal is for Servas to partner with other organizations and become a stronger force for peace. The initiators of this committee have already attended UN conferences and been active in various ways, and we’re excited to team up.
