ORGANIZATION: Goodman Community Center

Are you looking for a way to support your community and improve food access for students and their families? Join us in the Food for Thought Initiative to make a strong impact on food access for Madison students and their families.

The Food for Thought Initiative (Food4TI) is a all-volunteer partner organization with Goodman Community Center working to reduce food insecurity and improve school performance in Madison area school children. They have set up food pantry's at East High school, Sandburg Elementary, and Mendota Elementary schools to provide students with access to food as well as provide food to the neediest students in the district by sending home weekend and holiday family meals.

The Marketing and Fundraising Volunteer will:

  • Work with Food4TI Board Members to conceive, plan, and implement short and long range fundraising and marketing information
  • Identify & research potential sources of funding ie. corporations, foundations, community organizations, government agencies, and individuals
  • Coordinate public relations efforts and communication with donors
  • Develop appropriate donor and volunteer recognition programs
  • Maintain fundraising records
You will be working independently and with other Food4TI team members (Program Directors, Web Manger etc.). This opportunity will primarily work from home with bi-weekly meetings with other Food4TI members. Anticipated time commitment is 5-10 hours a week and a commitment of 9 months. Experience with computers, Microsoft Office, marketing, and working with donors is preferred.

Mission Statement

We engage the perspectives and voices of our community and ensure they are reflected in our culture.

Description

The Goodman Community Center is not your average community center. As I get to talking with people about Goodman, they inevitably end up surprised. They’re surprised by how many programs and resources we offer, how beautiful our facilities are, or how many people we serve. Every year more than 30,000 people use the Center - some who come to one event, others who are very familiar faces here.

Thanks to our generous community, we just built and moved into a second beautiful facility across the street, the Brassworks building. We’re now reconfiguring and refreshing the Center’s first home on Waubesa Street, the Ironworks building. During this past ten years, we’ve nearly doubled in size.

Our staff are committed to learning and continually improving, too. That’s why each program uses a variety of tools to measure impacts for both the program overall, and for each individual participant. We use that data to constantly fine-tune what we do - and how we do it.

We’re glad Goodman is one of many organizations in the Madison area who are pouring themselves into making our community great - for us all. We hope you’ll join us. Because we know that every good thing that happens here is made possible by people like you.
