Volunteer
Volunteers provide valuable skills and mentoring to help guide kids on their journey. They often help supplement staff talents or bring special skills to augment our programming. Volunteers also contribute to the Club through their service on our Advisory Council, the Development Committee, and on special event committees.
Advisory Council
Many volunteers engage with the executive and development staff in a consultative role on our Advisory Council. Serving for one-year, renewable terms, Advisory Council members must attend two meetings each year, make a donation to the Club and introduce at least one new person to the Club each year. For further information, contact Paul Grand Pré, Chief Development Officer, at pgrandpre@lawrencebgc.com or 978-683-2747.
Development Committee
Volunteers with experience in non-profit fundraising, estate planning, wealth management, or financial planning provide valuable service and advice to the Club as members of our Development Committee. To learn more about joining the Development Committee, please contact Paul Grand Pré, Chief Development Officer, at pgrandpre@lawrencebgc.com or 978-683-2747, x118.
Special Event Committees
Special event committees have been key to the success of our fundraiser events. Members help solicit in-kind contributions for our auctions, recruit participants, suggest new approaches, and expand our support network. To learn more about joining the Auction or Golf Outing committees, please contact Sarah Hogue, Special Events Coordinator, at shogue@lawrencebgc.com or 978-683-2747, x128.
Program and Holiday Event Volunteers
Volunteers may be individuals, families, school groups, church groups, corporate employees, or any variety of groups willing to support youth development or Club holiday celebrations.
