Membership Chair/Board Position, Barrington Land Conservation Trust

Membership Chair/Board Position, Barrington Land Conservation Trust

Are you a “people person” with a passion for the environment? Our Membership Chair is a member of our Board who co-chairs the Membership and Volunteer Committee. This committee develops recruitment, recognition and retention strategies for both members (our donors) and volunteers. To simplify our paperwork, we track membership, volunteer and donation data via computer with the easy-to-learn SalesForce online software. We recruit members via our website and our newsletter. Our current membership program includes two mailings each year, but we plan to include a new member drive and lapsed member mailings into our program this coming year. Our Membership Chair reports to our Board which meets every other month; the committee meets three or four times each year; the timing of the work itself is quite flexible. The Membership Chair works to recruit volunteers and build the capacity of the Membership and Volunteer Committee. Join our membership team now to learn from our current chair who steps down in June. Bring your creativity and communications skills to our growing non-profit! For more information, contact Helen Tjader at hhtjader@cox.net or 245-6209.
