Committee Member 2017/18

We are thrilled you're interested in joining the team!

Member participation is a minimum 3 hours per month, could be more pending the tasks an individual committee member takes on. Committees are intended to be flexible, with much of the work accomplished remotely.

Committees will meet in person as needed, likely once a month for 1.5-2hrs during an evening or weekend. Scheduling is done on a committee basis by member availability.

SPUR is a 100% volunteer led organization, meaning no one in the organization receives a salary or stipend. Your participation is voluntary and terms are one year in length, with the opportunity for renewal. Additionally, committee participation is a prerequisite for Board consideration.

Committees:

Administrative / IT Help keep us connected and organized. Put your administrative and/or database management skills to use taking part in internal document sharing, calendar organizing, database management, scheduling and the like.

Enrichment Program Committee We've developed curriculum with a service-learning focus, to help foster discussion with children and families about community and stewardship, including what it means to stand up for something and how to be a "doer." We are seeking committee members to help execute workshops from provided lesson plans for children ages 3-7 or 8-11. Educator experience highly desired.

Fundraising Committee will actively work on raising funds to sustain and grow our organization. Experience grant writing or securing sponsorships highly desired.

Marketing/PR Committee will be responsible for the promotion of SPUR activities, including but not limited to: press releases, monthly newsletter and maintaining/growing our social media presence.

Special Drives Committee will help with the management of logistics and execution of our annual SPUR Student Success Back-to-School drive in August/September and our Holiday Cheer Drive in November/December.

Summer Fling Committee will assist with the planning and execution of our annual summer fling celebration which takes place annually in July.

Volunteer Events Committee will help plan, brainstorm new ideas and execute our volunteer offerings - both larger scale Day of Service - as well as smaller efforts coordinated throughout Marblehead, Salem and Swampscott.

Why are you interested in joining the team? *

What skills or personal qualities do you bring to the team (YES passion and commitment is enough :) )

Please also contact me when team leaders are needed (for larger events we need a SPUR representative at multiple locations, we look for individuals who are good ambassadors for SPUR in the community who can manage a group, ensure safety and articulate the task to be accomplished to the group of volunteers)

Yes, please contact me for Team Leader opportunities so I can sign-up as my schedule allows No, at this time I only have bandwidth to commit committee involvement
