Are you interested in helping others make an impact on women's health worldwide? Basic Health International is looking for motivated volunteers from the corporate sector to help re-imagine and brainstorm about making meaningful connections for volunteers. Basic Health International's (BHI) mission is eliminating cervical cancer worldwide. This cancer is preventable but it kills over 340k women each year who do not have access to : vaccination, screening, and treatment. Our work changes this, and we have many stories about the barriers women face, the researchers who improve treatment, but BHI needs a group of volunteers to help us see the value of our work from an external perspective.

Could this be you? Can you provide constructive criticism and offer potential solutions or alternatives? Do you enjoy connecting with others around storytelling? Do you have networks in mind that would respond to our mission? Are you a whiz with social media and the role of influencers? A "yes" to any of these areas makes you a great volunteer candidate for BHI.

You will be working directly with Director of Development & Communication, Kate Colligan, please feel free to email her with interest and questions: kcolligan@basichealth.org

Thank you for considering volunteering with BHI. We are a small women-led organization serving women worldwide by eliminating cervical cancer. Join our team!

The Sherman Volunteer Fire Department has many opportunities for individuals to volunteer their time and talent. An important thing to remember is that there is a lot more to the fire department than just waking up at 3:00 in the morning and fighting fires. The department is always in need of individuals to help out with the operation and maintenance of the firehouse as well as fundraising and administrative tasks in addition to firefighting and EMS personnel.

Of course, if you are interested in being a firefighter, EMT or EMR then we would welcome you as well. We’re always in need of more trained personnel to respond to calls, especially those who are available during the workday when many of our current members are working outside of Sherman.

Another thing to remember is that not everyone is expected to make every call. Joining the department is not a commitment to be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We realize that this is a volunteer organization and that everyone has other commitments.

If you are interested in joining us you can call the firehouse at (860) 354-9273 or drop an email to chief@shermanvfd.org and someone from the membership committee will be in touch with you. You will be asked to fill out the Membership Application as part of the membership process.

CrowdDoing Deliberative Democracy Training Manager VolunteerCrowdDoing is aiming to address democratic deficits through deliberative democracy approaches:

http://blog.reframeit.com/deliberative-society/our-process/

CrowdDoing Deliberative Democracy Training Manager Volunteer
""This process can enhance decision-making for almost any group, including global multi-national companies - geographically dispersed and multi-lingual - as well as companies with more regionally concentrated workforces. It works even when there are deeply divided cultures, and challenges for which the group has not thought through the complexities before the process begins. Because considered judgments of populations are more likely to be sustained than top-of-the-head opinion, the process can create a deeper form of stakeholder buy-in. It allows resilient solutions to be identified, accepted and sustained over time. It can engage the collective intelligence of the workers or the clients of a corporation and provide decision makers with a data driven basis for choices that might otherwise be dominated by anecdotes and impressions.""

You can see a research paper by CrowdDoing Founder on deliberative democracy:
https://www.gcf.ch/citizen-voice-in-a-globalized-world/

Deliberative democracy is a technique to prevent democratic deficits vis a vis stakeholders for important decisions. These can include governmental decisions, proxy voting decisions for shareholder democracy, or multi-institutional decisions for collective action.
