New Volunteer Opportunities

Posted byMarianne RussoPosted inUncategorized

Donating money isn’t the only way to give to charitable organizations, many of whom rely on volunteers for various services. If you find yourself with free time on your hands on your weekend, or during the week, you could consider putting in some community service. Not only will you help a good cause, but it can also be a way to meet people and learn new skills.

I'm a creative and analytical marketing consultant specializing in defining strategy while keeping brand top of mind. Effective at identifying compelling programs and scaling them to grow the business. Experienced in strategic planning — organizing ideas, unfolding needs for resources and processes, and developing analytics engine to drive ongoing growth. I relish in collaborative solving problems and working cross-functionally to stitch different agendas to drive company results and brand loyalty. I worked in customer-facing retail and restaurants roles from a young age, which impassioned me to ensure the best experience throughout the consumer journey. I had the opportunity to live in 3 continents and worked on diverse global teams, which has provided me with the cultural empathy to communicate with people from different backgrounds and circumstances. I surround myself with technology that enhances people's lives by empowering them to create and produce beautiful and powerful things that make the world safer, cleaner, and more accessible. I believe technology can democratize global societies – and over the years, I've enjoyed bringing technology to emerging countries in Latin America and Asia. In my free time, I am a hobbyist recruiter. I enjoy connecting great talent to great opportunities. I also volunteer as a mentor at Scholar Match where I provide career coaching to entry-level candidates, so they can start their career on the right path. As a passionate special-needs advocate, I organize groups and fundraisers to grow accessibility resources for the community – ultimately helping them find joy in their journey.
