Our fundraisers supports our non-profit with providing essential funding to schools, non-profits and famiies in need who otherwise would not be able to afford our membership program or our STEAM education program fees.
Working closely with the Philanthropy Events & CRM Manager (gary@futureofflight.org), each procurement volunteer will help us procure donations for our upcoming auctions. Our new strategy includes deeper volunteer engagement with a potential themed based approach for items.
June 3, 2017 - Wine, Wings & More! (Silent auction)
October 14, 2017 - Soaring into the Future Gala (Silent & live auction)
We are seeking to gather a team who can support our small staff to help make these auctions a success. We imagine that the team will meet periodically (either in person or conference call) and coordinate their requests and brainstorm the creativity of the packages. From there each person can make magic happen and submit their results as they progress. In addition, all volunteer members of this team are welcome to attend our event steering committee meetings as they wish.
This position works well for people who work full-time but want to help in a meaningful way and leverage your contacts. Times are flexible to fit your personal schedule.
Thanks for considering this opportunity. If this isn't for you, but it makes you think of someone else, please forward this opportunity along.

Description
The Institute of Flight is an independent 501(c)(3) non-profit that serves as the operator of the Future of Flight Aviation center and Boeing Tour facility, which is owned by Snohomish County.
Our role is to strengthen and deepen the visitor experience and provide hands-on STEAM related educational programs to Snohomish County students. We are able to achieve this due to the generosity of our partners, sponsors, members and donors.
The Future of Flight Aviation Center & Boeing Tour debuted in Fall 2005 as a unique aviation interpretive center and the home of the Boeing Tour, their Everett WA assembly plant.
The Future of Flight Aviation Center & Boeing Tour offers a remarkable opportunity to see both commercial jet production today and the direction aviation is headed in the future. The Future of Flight Aviation Center Gallery features hands-on exhibits, videos, meeting and conference space and spectacular viewing of planes from that take-off and land at Paine Field on a daily basis.
