Join a group of passionate people of all ages who are working
to change the systems that make waste.
Volunteers
Our current needs are:
Policy tracker: Want to really understand the legislative process? Follow waste related bills and provide the Board and group members updates and action alerts. Attend weekly 1 hour Plastic Free Washington Coalition meetings (virtual) and connect with a network of individuals and groups working to change Washington’s waste structure. This position has a 2 - 3 hour per week time commitment during Washington’s legislative session, Jan -March in 2024.
Social Media Communications Beast: Love social media? Know the in’s and out’s of how it works and how to engage an audience? Want to put that skill to use for good and get college credit? Then we want to talk to you! SZW is in need of someone who can build on our social media foundation, help develop a communications strategy that includes fundraising and set us on a path to organizational success. 2-5 hours per week, somewhat flexible. One semester commitment with option for a second semester paid.
Volunteer Coordinator: Do you love getting to know people and learning about their particular strengths and supporting them? Are you super organized and patient? Do you believe there are ways to live that don't make so much waste? Have 5-10 free hours a month? Then we’d like to talk with you.
Organizational Liaison to Beyond Plastics: Spokane Zero Waste is an affiliate of this national organization. We need a representative at their weekly meetings who can work with our communications manager and executive director to translate the national platform into locally relevant information. This information will be distributed through social media, print and at local tabling events.
