Be a development volunteer

Help MIFA's development staff raise money and awareness for MIFA's programs by helping with mailings, special events like Feed the Soul and Day of Reflection and Service, and other activities.

Whether you want to make thank you calls, stuff envelopes, or serve as a host at Feed the Soul, we would love to have you on board. 

 

Requirements

Volunteers must be able to give/take oral and written directions and possess computer skills related to word processing and database use. These assistants will stuff envelopes, make phone calls, write holiday cards, maintain spreadsheets, use a word processor, serve refreshments, set up and clean up, assist with events, host/hostess, and provide other general clerical support as needed.

 

Please contact Charlie Nelson at (901) 529-4514 or cnelson@mifa.org.
