What Makes GBF Tick? - Volunteer Appreciation Day
A look under the hood of GBF, how things work, and those who keep it all together. COVID put huge strains on our group, and this is a time to recognize and thank the individuals who held up the roof beams and made GBF stronger in the process.
You'll be surprised at how much goes on behind the scenes and gain appreciation for GBF as an organization and sangha including:
- Lining up speakers
- Announcing & facilitating each meeting
- Setting up the recordings & Zoom equipment
- Hosting and providing refreshments
- Editing recordings & producing the podcast & YouTube channel
- Publishing and mailing the newsletter
- Planning semi-annual retreats
- Managing our social media presence
- Updating the website
- Publishing the member directory
We can use more help with the many facets of keeping the sangha strong, so listen and perhaps find a Volunteer role to suit you. Specific details about openings, their duties, and time commitments for each will be given along with roles perfectly suited for those on Zoom.
