We are currently looking for someone who has computer skills. Someone who is capable of running errands for the organization when needed. Some who has great communication and phone skills. Someone who has the ability to help on organization projects bi-monthly. This is a volunteer opportunity.

We are currently looking for someone who has expertise in PR & Marketing. If you have the ability to execute marketing projects and we are also open to a college student that is majoring in PR & Marketing If so then we are looking for you and we would like to talk with you.

As patients and family members we are so busy taking care of our patients - or ourselves in this period of COVID-19. In order to promote our work on our 2021 Virtual March for Marrow, which will include a Virtual 5K Run and Walk as well as an online raffle, we need a clever and committed Social Media Guru.

We have a lot to learn and would love to learn from younger, smarter and more clever young people from the Houston area.

In addition, we are trying to go paperless – although we do have a great flier featuring our 2021 Star, Nicholas Smith, who just went through a bone marrow transplant. We are open to advice as to how best to use it. But it seems social media is the best way to go.

Our 2021 VIRTUAL March for Marrow 5K Run & Walk will run for 7 days from Saturday, March 27 to Saturday, April 3, 2021.

Our schedule for Saturday, 3/27/2021, Sunday, 3/28/2021, and Saturday, 4/3/2021, will run for about 2 hours, 9:00 am to 10:30 or 11:00 am.

Monday, 3/29/2021 to Friday, 4/2/2021, will only be 1 hour – perhaps 1 ½ hours.

There will be the Kick-Off including sounding the start of the 5k and Patient and Family Walk – complete with selfies. We will have a couple of doctors speak and a couple of patients telling their stories.  We hope to attract a couple of high school groups – bands and or a cheerleading squad – all with proper social distancing.

On Saturday, April 3, we will hold our Moment of Remembrance and Closing Ceremonies, catch up with our 5K Runners and have them log in their times and announce our Top Fundraisers and our Raffle WINNERS!

Bike MS is the fundraising cycling series of the National MS Society and raises more money than any other cycling event for any other cause. Even though we are unable to meet in-person this year, our Bike MS team is still determined to make an impact. To date, Bike MS cyclists, volunteers, and donors have raised more than $1.3 billion to stop MS in its tracks, restore what's been lost, and end MS forever. By virtually volunteering, you can be a part of this growing movement!

We anticipate having a variety of different needs/projects arise in the coming months. They can include anything from data entry, to making phone calls, to creating videos, to assisting with one of our virtual events!

Thank you for your consideration in volunteering! Together, we are stronger. Together, we will end MS forever.

Best Practices for Volunteers During COVID-19

https://www.houstonresponds.org/c19serve

The following are best practices that volunteers can utilize while engaging and participating in community events during the Coronavirus pandemic.  

Wash your hands for at least 20 seconds with soap and warm water or use hand sanitizer that has at least 60% alcohol. 

Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth, especially when out in public. 

Avoid contact with people who are sick and stay home if you are sick. 

Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe. 

Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue away. 

Stagger your volunteering shifts.

Volunteers most at risk of contracting Covid-19 should not volunteer until further notice.

Provide administrative or support functions for older volunteers who want to be part of the response.

The National Multiple Sclerosis Society is a national non-profit that exists because there are people with MS. Our vision is a world free of MS. Everything we do is focused so that people affected by MS can live their best lives as we stop MS in its tracks, restore what has been lost and end MS forever.

We are more than an organization. We are a movement. United in our collective power to do something about MS now and end this disease forever. At the National MS Society you have the opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of those living with MS and their families.

As a member of the Society team, you'll work in an environment that values collaboration, innovation, diverse perspectives, and most of all a relentless resolve so people with MS can live their best lives.

The National MS Society is offering an exciting internship within the Volunteer Engagement department. This unpaid internship can provide school credit and offers valuable experience in the non-profit, engagement, relationship management, and event planning industries. Candidates must have excellent customer service skills, be self-motivated, a team player, results-oriented, and dedicated to making a difference in the lives of people living with and affected by MS.

Intern(s) will assist with the execution of all Volunteer Engagement functions. These tasks will include volunteer outreach, recruitment, communications, cultivation, and recognition for the 2021 Texas MS 150 and local Walk MS events. Will also include some administrative, database management, and event production activities.

Girls are looking for meaningful ways to connect now more than ever, and that’s where you come in! For girls in grades 3-12, we want to include an inspiring element of connection in our Spark Kits - Relatable Role Model Letters.

So what are Relatable Role Model Letters? These page-long letters written by Girls Empowerment Network volunteers aim to inspire, encourage, uplift, and celebrate girls throughout our community. During the last several months, many of us have felt disconnected, distant, or isolated from others. Relatable Role Model Letters provide volunteers and girls a unique way of communicating and feeling connected.

Be sure to check out our Volunteer FAQs (see links below)! This document is full of tips, guidelines, and an example Relatable Role Model Letter.

To register as a Relatable Role Model Letters volunteer, visit: Relatable Role Model Letters (jotform.com)

What should be included in my letters?

What are some creative elements that you could you include in your letter?

And be sure to share your letter on social media using #GirlSpark!

Interfaith Ministries' Meals on Wheels Program needs your help to provide a cloth, reusable mask to each of our Meals on Wheels seniors. A standard, adult-sized mask, with soft ear loops, is recommended. We will need to have them in small bags, to ease distribution. If you prefer to bring them to us, ready to be sent out, please include bagging them, individually, in a bag that lays flat during transport (a sandwich sized baggie – either paper or plastic – should be perfect. Target sells some paper ones that are biodegradable). Feel free to get creative with cute designs, so long as we steer clear of any religious or political messaging. We serve a broad audience, so we recommend keeping it to inclusive and happy things. If you’re unsure, solid colors or striped/paisley/gingham patters are always a safe bet.

The Details:

Email Lauren at llewis@imgh.org with any questions or to arrange drop-off of your donation. We encourage you to get your networks involved and work together to create or gather these needed items! Social distancing doesn't mean we can't work together!
