Volunteering

These Planning Committees will be based in our Walk/Run/Relax cities. Committee members will have personal connections to those in their cities and will help grow our events each year. Miles for Migraine will provide training to help in your success on this committee. This is a great opportunity to gain office/school volunteer hours as well.

• The Focus will be on:
  • Team recruitment
  • Walker recruitment
  • Sponsorship recruitment
• A minimum of  5 Planning Committee Members (mixed between)
  • Providers
  • Those living with or caring for someone with migraine and headache disease
  • Those who have connections in the local area
• Planning Committee will hold 1 Monthly Meeting
  • Meetings held via Zoom – The committee chooses the time

• Call our past participants of our Run/Walk/Relax and/or Educational events and remind them of our upcoming event in their city
• Call our top fundraisers, donors and team captains from our Run/Walk/Relax Events to thank them for their contributions.
• Volunteers should be people with a friendly, out-going personality, willing to speak with others (we provide a script)
• Time commitment is approximately 1 hour per event

• Comment, like and share posts on our social media accounts (Facebook, Instagram, Threads, LinkedIn, X, TikTok) 
• Develop your own promotional posts to share on your accounts. Some examples could include a quick video on Instagram Stories or Reels to remind people of our Mindfulness Series, or sharing a photo of you taking part in a walk/run/relax event, or a screenshot of you attending a virtual education event. 
• Talk to your friends, family and co-workers about your experience with Miles for Migraine. Word of mouth promotion is one of the best ways to help us grow our migraine community and to continue to provide relevant and informative programs, events and services.
