 ORGANIZATIONAL
SUPPORT
Administrative Assistance ~ Word processing, filing, photocopying,
and answering phones are just a few of the tasks done everyday in all our departments.
If you enjoy working in an office environment and feel comfortable with a computer,
photocopier and fax machine come spend the day (or longer) with us.
Fundraising ~ Do you know of a prospective donor or someone
you know that might financially support the Conservancy? Work with our Director
of Development in cultivating friends interested in preserving Catalina Island.
Or, perhaps, you might be intereseted in developing written literature on Conservancy
projects/programs that can be used in our grant writing and fundraising proposals.
Internet/Library Research ~ The internet and university
library databases provide a wealth of information on every topic imaginable.
Volunteers are enlisted to research such topics as nonprofit agencies, conservation
issues, product and cost comparison for environmentally-sound products, construction
supplies, volunteer programs, website design, nursery and gardening supplies
and new technologies.
Mailings ~ Monthly flyers, quarterly newsletters, and notices
are sent to Conservancy support groups, volunteers and island and mainland residents.
These mailings often require stuffing envelopes, affixing mailing labels and
running letters through the stamp machine. There is also the art of bulk mailing;
a process which requires a good eye for detail to sort and bundle mailings by
zip code. Project locations can be flexible, i.e. they can be worked on at home
or in Avalon at the Conservancy House.
Newsletter/Graphic Design ~ Many departments within our
organization utilize brochures, newsletters, and flyers for outreach purposes.
We have a need for people skilled in graphic design/layout to assist us in developing
literature that shares our mission of preserving Santa Catalina Island with our
members and the public or if you have a knack for creative writing, this is a
great opportunity to get your work in print.
