The work of the Foundation is dependent upon active committee members. Permanent committees that are staffed by volunteers include Distribution, Development and Investment Committees. Ad hoc committees are often created to handle specific events. We welcome those with specific expertise or interest to inquire about membership.

The Foundation is always glad to welcome individuals to help with a variety of tasks at our office in Natick. Throughout the year we are looking for general office assistance with tasks that include copying, sorting, creating packets of information, assistance with mailings, filing, and general administrative tasks. There are also opportunities for people with the following skills:
Writing and editing
Internet research, data discovery and compilation
Creating and posting social media content
Creating mailing lists.

High school students are invited to volunteer at our office for a variety of administrative tasks. Volunteers must be willing to commit to regular hours at least once per week. In addition to general office work for the Foundation as a whole, there are opportunities to assist the Youth In Philanthropy coordinator in support of this program. Activities here may include curriculum research, outreach to alumni, creating and compiling surveys, and general tasks as requested by the coordinator.
