Specific Needs for 2023
Paly's Rise Together Education relies on volunteers. We are looking for volunteers to help on the following committees:
1. Fundraising Events Committee. Do you enjoy creativity and organizing events to raise money for a meaningful cause? This is the committee for you. We are currently looking for help organizing our May campaign and other events through out the year.
2. Major Donor and Grants Committee. Do you know people or companies in your sphere of influence that support education for low-income college bound students? RTE needs your help on this committee!
3. Do you have experience using SalesForce? Your expertise is needed helping RTE implement SalesForce to keep track of our students and database. Two of our board members are working on this but are unfamiliar with SalesForce and need help.
4. Newsletter/PR Committee. Help with writing, planning, and using graphic programs to create and electronically distributing quarterly newsletters.
5. Mentorship: Commit to mentoring students for 4+ years until they graduate from college. This requires checking in on students at least once per quarter and entering notes into SalesForce. You must have some experience with college age youth.
6. Workshops: Create and run relevant online workshops: these are as needed but about once every other month.
7. Marketing: Help us create marketing/fundraising campaigns.

Be a Paly Student Representatives for '23-'24!
