Special Events Support - King County Residents Only

Flexible Schedule | Kirkland, WA 98033

Our goal is to build meaningful connections with community members to increase their awareness of our work, highlight engagement opportunities, and motivate financial investment. As an non-profit that started as a volunteer only grassroots organization, we truly understand the impact that volunteers can make. Without volunteers we would simply not be able to provide the same high quality services to families across the state like we do now. From administrative tasks, to helping direct people to the location of an event, to helping with procurement of auction items, each person and donation of time is valuable to us. In assisting the staff with various tasks and projects, you allow us to spend the most time possible on efforts that directly assist the ASD community. If you enjoy special events and working as part of a team, we'd love to hear from you. Please include any past experience you've had with special events (i.e. Fundraising Galas, Fun Run/Walks, Family Fairs, etc.) when responding to this opportunity. We look forward to hearing from you. King County, Washington State Residents Only Please.

This is a group with a lot of heart! Everyone with the organization - at all levels - puts supporting individuals with autism and their families as their top priority. They provide outstanding training and are grateful for any time you can provide with them. Volunteering with WAAA has been the most heartwarming and rewarding experience of my adult life! They serve children and families in every zip code of the state, so give them a try! They will match you up!
