JOINING A COMMITTEE

Committees serve a huge purpose and the Board would like to encourage members to join a committee. You can join a committee as soon as you become a member, thus facilitating an early insertion in our big family.

The work entailed is never too taxing, though one does have to be available at certain times negotiable with the Chairperson. It is an easy way to meet new people, to be active and connected. You will become a great asset to our Club. It gives an opportunity to work for the Club in a meaningful way without having to be on
The Board. It can train and inspire you to become a future Board member.

Please send an email to contact@iwcstockholm.com to find out more about it. Just to give you an idea, here are a few quick descriptions of what the work entails depending on the chair:

Vice-President: hospitality, coffee mornings…
Bulletin Editor: proof reading, stuffing and sending the bulletin…
Hostess Chairperson: luncheons…
Membership Chairperson: members’ badges, applications…
Philanthropy Chairperson: fund raising, lottery…
Program Chairperson: stage management, networking…

Please find out and you will be amazed how much fun it can be to help your Club!
