What makes a volunteer?

Spoiler alert – at AIGA OC, everyone is a volunteer! When you think of the word volunteer, you probably think about donating your time or resources to support a group or event – like bringing the paper products to your friend’s party or working at a registration table at an event. At AIGA OC, we have a very wide definition of what makes a volunteer. It’s literally everyone. All of us. This can look like… Telling a friend about an event. Introducing a friend or colleague to our community. Posting a job opening on our Slack community. Providing feedback on a project. Sharing a resource or vendor. Organizing a coffee meetup. Editing a video. Reposting on social media. The list goes on! We’d like you to think about what you’d like to contribute to our community. You might not leave this site with a specific action item, but rather some foundation and thought-starters to reflect on. We hope this turns into action and helps serve why you chose to become involved in AIGA to begin with.

If you want to get involved with AIGA OC as a volunteer, please reach out. We look forward to meeting you!
