Volunteer Opportunities
WNBA/Washington offers its members a host of opportunities to broaden
their skills and to become involved in the organization and in the community.
Each of the following areas has a coordinator or chairperson who would
be more than happy to discuss matching her area's activities with your
interests. Just a few of the activities in each area are listed below:
- Programs: Pitching topic ideas for programs, identifying/contacting
speakers; coordinating program refreshments; handling logistics; working
a registration table.
- Signature Newsletter: Writing articles or book reviews; editing; proofing;
suggesting topics for articles.
- Publicity: Contacting press about the programs; distributing flyers;
writing press releases; identifying outlets for WNBA news.
- Membership: Managing the member database; calling to welcome new members;
assisting with program registration desks; keeping track of renewals
and new memberships; handling information inquiries.
- Service: Coordinating service opportunities for the membership; working
