Help Wanted! Get Involved!
Have you often thought you would like to get more involved and apply your skills and passion to advocating NFP beyond your local area, when_______ (fill in the blank: you graduate, kids start school, kids are grown, things slow down, you retire, etc.)? While sometimes it is just not prudent to take on new responsibilities, sometimes we are just waiting for the perfect time—which rarely presents itself. Sometimes important things just need to be tackled! (You know what they say, you want something done, ask a busy person.)
CANFP is a unique organization, there is no other like us in the country. Our exciting and successful National HV50 Celebration created a buzz of interest in the services offered by CANFP. This unique time of increased activity has created a need for more people to get involved, sharing their skills and gifts. Are you feeling called?
Love planning events? Creating flyers or website content? Developing Curriculum? Funding and Development? Speaking? Writing? Editing and Formatting content for publications? Organized? Creative? Technical? CANFP would like to hear from you. CANFP is expanding—many volunteer opportunities, some with potential to lead to paid positions, and some that do currently include a stipend.
