• Manage event logistics including scheduling, vendor coordination, and volunteer management
• Ensure events align with our mission and create a positive impact on the community

Commitment:

• 5-10 hours per week, possibility of more closer to event dates
• Flexible schedule
• Most work can be done remotely but on-site attendance will be needed the day of events
