10th Annual Bone & Joint EXPO

DoubleTree Berkeley Marina
Seeking volunteers to help post event flyers for the 10th Annual Bone & Joint Expo in your neighborhood. This event is a one-stop-shop for people living with arthritis and related diseases and their family members and care-givers.
Volunteers are needed to visit local businesses (i.e. coffee shops, grocery stores, doctor's offices, etc.) asking them to post Save The Date flyers for the event. We will provide you with the flyers; all you have to do is post them around your community! Help out a great cause while you do your own errands or activities.
Please email afncintern (at) gmail (dot) com if interested!
