Strong marketing and communication tactics are essential to building a robust community of stakeholders. Unfortunately, many nonprofit organizations lack the expertise and/or resources needed to communicate their missions strategically.Join the 501 Commons Service Corps and utilize your marketing and communications skills to help nonprofits identify their target audiences, hone in on their messaging, and develop strategies for effective delivery.
The Service Corps is dedicated to connecting the skills and expertise of volunteer consultants with organizations in need of planning and support. Volunteers are in an on-call “pool” of professionals whom we contact when a specific project calls for their skill set. You decide if the project and timing are of interest to you. If it is not the right time, we place you back in the pool to await the next opportunity.
As a service corps member, you will:
· Typically contribute 10-12 hours per month on projects ranging from 2-5 months long
· Access our online training, resource library, and professional development workshops
· Learn new skills applicable to personal and professional situations
· Apply your background and expertise towards supporting the nonprofit community
For more information about the Service Corps or to apply, please visit the “Engage Section” of our website www.501commons.org or contact volunteer@501commons.org.

The American Relief Coalition for Syria (ARCS) is looking for volunteers who can help develop our organization's pitch. The mission of ARCS is a voice for US-based Syrian diaspora organizations who are providing humanitarian and development services for Syrians worldwide, through advocacy and empowering local humanitarian actors. ARCS serves as an impetus for positive change, social welfare, and progress through serving as a platform for coordination and organizational development. Our vision is to empower Syrian voices, both in Syria and in the diaspora. We envision a world where Syrian voices are heard, and their dreams are empowered to become a reality.ARCS is the voice of and provides support to Syrian-American humanitarian organizations, but does not directly provide services on the ground. This has made it challenging for us to locate potential sources of funding, as many foundations are looking to directly fund relief activities on the ground. We are looking for a volunteer to help us develop our messaging and our pitch as we begin speaking to potential donors and searching for funding.
This opportunity would need about 20-30 hours of total support over 2-6 months, depending on volunteer's availability.
