Calling for Volunteering Leads Opportunities for Grattan
Grattan Elementary

Attention Grown-Ups!

 

We’re calling on all Grown-Ups who are ready to jump in, collaborate, and take the lead on some of the cherished Grattan events that have become a beloved tradition. We know everyone’s time is precious with the hustle of daily life, so we’ve listed the event dates (so you can plan ahead) along with the approximate hours per week required for each role, giving you a clear idea of what you’re signing up for.

 

The great news is that we have playbooks for each event, so you won’t be starting from scratch. Plus, previous event leaders are available as advisors to support you along the way!

 

If we’re unable to recruit leads in time, we may have to forgo some of these events—but we believe we can do this together. Remember, we’re stronger as a team, and it takes a village to keep these traditions alive.

 

Thank you all for considering this opportunity to make a difference!
