Volunteer with BWF

Volunteer opportunities:

Interns: Opportunities are available for internships. Please see our Internship Description for more details.

Volunteers: Opportunities are available in reception to answer the phone and receive visitors.

Allocations committee: Allocation committee members recommend funding decisions. We receive proposals from community-based organizations run by women and girls in the Greater Boston Area that are working to create a better society based on racial, economic and social justice. Please email amy[at]bostonwomensfund.org if you would like to be on the Allocations committee.

Women and girls interested in social and economic justice can volunteer to serve on our Board or on one of our Committees that include the:

Allocations Committee
Program Committee
Finance Committee
Nominations Committee
Personnel Committee
Development Committee
Publications Committee

We welcome people from diverse walks of life to help us plan various grantee, fundraising and outreach events throughout the year. In the past we have had volunteers host house parties; help us to plan and carry out our annual fundraising and visibility, and help us at the Take A Stand event; help to organize grantee networking events and collaborate on protests, petitions, educational forums and other movement building activities.

We also look to community members to provide whenever possible some pro-bono technical assistance support to the Fund or to our grantee groups. This helps us tremendously to ensure that we are continually strengthening and growing our social and economic justice movement.
