Volunteer Opportunities

There are a lot of ways to participate in the League. See the Participate page for some very broad ideas. However, we are often asked a very specific question: What does the League need right now?  If that's your question, check out the list below.

To volunteer for one of these or just ask some questions, send an email to info@lwvchampaigncounty.org with "Volunteer" in the subject line. We'll contact you to talk more about it.

Programmer/Web Developers: Help Update the Candidate Guide for Upcoming Elections

Before every election, LWVCC works to do a nonpartisan Candidate Guide. The Guide includes a survey and much more information about each candidate. James Manrique, the developer of the guide, could use some help with the April 6 Municipal Election guide. First, he's looking for a volunteer to help with candidate outreach, mainly sending emails and doing follow up calls with candidates. Second, he's looking for someone with experience in Web Development (Wordpress, CSS, or general programming experience) to assist with expanding the code for the Candidate Guide. If you are interested in either of these opportunities, please contact James by email at james.manrique@gmail.com


Help Get Election Information to Voters This Spring

This fall's Get-Out-The-Vote (GOTV) project was very successful, distributing voting information to 1,000 households in low-turnout areas and posting flyers in local businesses.  The GOTV team wants to build on this success for the municipal election in April. Planning starts in late January. Three 3 team coordinators are needed to help the volunteers who do this important work. The work is generally remote (email, phone) and scheduling can be worked out within small groups. To learn more, or offer to help, send an email to email info@lwvchampaigncounty.org with "Spring GOTV Project" in the subject area. We'll get back to you with details. VOP #045

Youth Outreach

Youth Outreach and Civic Engagement (YOCE) would like to grow their team. There are no specific events scheduled, as they are challenged to make plans until they know how many people they will have on their team. Please contact  lyndajohnminor@gmail.com  VOL #047

​Talk with New Volunteers

When someone contacts us about helping the League, the Volunteer Team follows up to discuss the possibilities.  Currently, we have a backlog of contacts that need to be made. Are you willing to help out?  Make contact by email, phone or Zoom to help match interests to opportunities. Training provided. To learn more, send an email to info@lwvchampaigncounty.org with "New Volunteers" in the subject line. VOP #046

Fundraising Committee

The League’s Fundraising Committee needs four new members. If you have marketing experience, expertise in soliciting donors or organizational skills you are willing to apply to this task, we can use your help. Responsibilities of committee members will include attendance at monthly meetings and a commitment to work on the initiatives the committee identifies. If you are interested, please contact Deb Busey at dbusey@comcast.net. VOP #043

League Observing

 Would you like to learn about local government? Do you have several hours each month to be the eyes and ears of the League?
Then perhaps being a League observer would be an exciting League adventure for you.  Contact Debbie Rugg, Observer Chair, if you have questions about observing or you would like to volunteer. 217-621-7180, debrugg@aol.com. See the Observer Corps page for more  information.  VOP #038

Get Your Name on the Contact-Me List

We've created a list of people willing to be contacted for short-term work, tasks that might arise fairly quickly. Adding your name to the list means receiving a periodic email – no obligation beyond that. If you're willing to be called for specific tasks, possibly on short notice, send an email to info@lwvchampaigncounty.org with "Call Me" in the subject line. VOP #040 

Check Back Later . . .  

This list is updated as our needs change. Questions? Email to info@lwvchampaigncounty.org
