Call for volunteers

Website Content Coordinator

In this role, you will have the opportunity to be as creative as you have time for! If your web skills are limited, your primary role would be to post and archive the quarterly newsletter, update static content when needed, and add announcements to the home page. Time requirement for these activities is about two hours every three months.

If you have more experience or want to acquire it, you can recommend and work on improving the site going forward. It is possible the SIG can provide software if you need it.

To volunteer or to learn more, email Dawnell Claessen at mail@dawnell.com.

Membership Coordinator

This role requires about one hour per month. The two main activities are monitoring and reporting on membership numbers, and emailing welcome letters to new members. There might also be the occasional project to promote membership in our SIG.

To volunteer or to learn more, email lois.marsh@bmo.com.

Listserv Coordinator

Our listserv manager is leaving at the end of this calendar year. We are actively recruiting a new volunteer to take on this role. We do have a good description of what the role entails. We have recently undertaken a migration from one listserv software to another, so the software should be quite stable. We estimate that this position would entail a time commitment of one to three hours per month. To volunteer or to learn more, email Dawnell Claessen at mail@dawnell.com.

Contributors - SIG Newsletter

We are looking for people to contribute or help compile articles for our quarterly newsletter, Direction. If you don’t want to write, maybe you are able to research topics of interest to our members, then summarize your findings for the newsletter, or identify existing articles that we can re-print. To volunteer or to learn more, email lois.marsh@bmo.com.
