Current Volunteer Needs
Writers for our Success Stories Series
- Profile our Entrepreneur Training for Success graduates to show what impact EWI has had on their personal and professional lives.
Women Career Mentors
We have openings for seasoned professional women to volunteer as career mentors with EWI artist members.
- The commitment is usually 2-4 hours a week working one-on-one with the artist member. Every artist member’s needs are different, so we may not have a career mentor opportunity for you immediately, as we try to match up each volunteer with a member most in need of their skills, assets, and background.
- If you want to volunteer as a career mentor, please Email Marga
Corporate Partnerships Committee Members
- Some familiarity with corporate environment (worked in one, sold to one, consulted with one)
- Ability to research corporate giving policies (may require phone calls, e-mail correspondence)
- Writing skills, preferably some experience writing business plans or funding proposals
- Interested to learn more or help out? Email Marga
