Booth Volunteers attend functions around Benton and Linn counties such as the Benton County Fair, the Linn County Fair, and various other community events. You will help with the presentation of information to event attendees, answer questions, and pass out brochures and informational pamphlets. Booth shifts are variable, often four to six hours, and in return you gain extensive training and you get to attend the event for free!
HIV Positive Speakers are the core of our most important services. They go out into to community and educate others directly, presenting in schools from middle school up to college, at private functions, and to organizations both large and small. If you are HIV positive and have a story to tell, we want to talk to you!
We are also seeking persons with graphic design experience or skill in writing to help with the ongoing development of our web site, informational brochures, and promotional materials.
