Alaska Run for Women: Looking for a few good people!
It takes a special group of volunteers to make this annual all-women’s run and breast cancer fundraiser happen. Since 1993 more than $5.3 million has been raised and granted to organizations concerned with breast cancer research, outreach, education and early detection.
The volunteer board of directors is responsible for setting policy, fundraising, fiscal oversight and reviewing grant requests for the money raised. They also assist the volunteer race director and race committee with publicity, merchandise sales and other areas required to ensure a successful event. The organization seeks to have diverse representation on the board, and currently has a need for anybody with accounting, social media/marketing, or oncology experience. For more information or to apply, please see the board application here. Applications will be accepted until December 28, 2021.
