Opportunities From: Latino Community Association

We’re excited to share that LCA is launching monthly volunteer orientations to make it easier than ever to get involved and stay connected!

Our virtual volunteer orientation schedule:

Each Orientation is from 12:00–1:00 PM, via Zoom. An email with the Zoom link will be sent within a week before the orientation. If you have not received the meeting information. Please email us at volunteer@latca.org.

These sessions are open to new volunteers as well as returning or recurring volunteers who would like a refresher or want to learn more about LCA’s work.

During each session, participants will:

Learn more about LCA’s mission and values

Get an overview of our programs and services

Explore different volunteer opportunities

Learn how volunteers can best support LCA and their community

Ask questions and connect with staff

Whether you’re brand new to volunteering with LCA or have been involved before and want to re-engage, this orientation is a great way to build knowledge, confidence, and connection.

We are seeking committed, self-motivated individuals to join our board of directors. We ask that board members be willing to serve for a minimum of three years. Our board members help provide overall direction for the organization, prioritize our services and make policy decisions about significant changes to our direction and focus. You are asked to utilize your social and professional networks to make people aware of LCA's work and how they can get involved to support our mission through volunteering, partnering and/or donating.  Finally, board members keep an eye on our finances and make sure we have the resources we need to carry out our plans and reach our service goals all within the laws that govern our work.

Our board currently meets a minimum of four times a year. Board members are asked to support one of our committees in between board meetings. Our committees include: Governance, Finance, Fundraising, Events and Advocacy.

The time commitment is typically 5-6 hours each quarter, or 2-3 hours per month. There is nor set amount our board members are asked to donate to the organization, but we do ask every board member to make a financial contribution that is meaningful to him or her.
