We encourage you to volunteer within areas that are of interest to you. Some of the main areas in which volunteer assistance is needed are the following:
- OUT in the OPEN Festival: our annual event requires people to assist (esp. Carnival Day; back stage and set-up).
- GV Pride Hub concierge shifts.
- Technical / Production Assistance: to help co-ordinate and run events.
- Evaluations / Surveys: we have roles for volunteers to either conduct surveys or to assist in collecting and collating the results.
- Team Leaders: mature, responsible volunteers are needed to co-ordinate the many different teams of volunteers.
- Door / Gate duties: at some events volunteers are needed to usher and collect tickets.
- Information services: at some events, volunteers are needed to provide information to the public. However, all volunteers will be called upon by the public to answer queries – we will do our utmost to empower you to be able to answer, or appropriately redirect, such queries.
- Office Support: volunteers are sought to assist in the GV Pride Inc. office within working hours – basic computer skills are useful, but not mandatory for this.
- Special Activities: there will periodically be ad-hoc needs for volunteers, for example to assist with mailout and packaging activities.
