You don't need any special skill to be a volunteer. Come to a volunteer event or help out with envelope stuffing, phone-banking, or staff our table at a festival.

Typical events include:

• Staffing fundraising events (set up, collect tickets, help greet attendees)
• Staffing a table at a festival (take a shift meeting everyone that comes along)
• Phonebanking (it's easy, we tell you exactly what to do and say)
• Mailings (spend some time stuffing with others)
• Participating in a phone-a-thon
• Handing out flyers (at bars, coffee houses, and bookstores — evenings or weekends. It's a volunteer favorite.
• Lobbying (meet your legislator as a constituent and tell him or her your story)
