Hello,
Animal Friends is in need of some volunteer help as we grow as an organization. All these opportunities do not require travel to the shelter.
First, we need to put together a fundraising committee. This would entail working on getting sponsors for our annual calendar, which we are working on now and planning fundraising events. These events often fall on weekends so you need to be willing to volunteer some of your time on the weekend. This also will include working directly with donors and trying to secure donations.
Second, Animal Friends has been awarded the honor of hosting the upcoming Middle East Network for Animal Welfare Conference here in Kuwait at the end of 2009. I would like to put together a planning committee for this large event since the time will be upon us very quickly. This is an amazing opportunity for us to get our message outÂ
to the population of Kuwait as well as the government by bringing very influential people in the field right into our living room. We are about 18 months away and every aspect of the conference needs to be planned.
Third, I would like to put together an education committee. Basically it is time to really hit the schools hard and start to get our message out to the younger generation of Kuwait in an organized and efficient manner. It would be very helpful if we could include some Arabic speakers on this committee. I already have some education programs that have been shared with me by bigger organizations that just needÂ
to be tweaked to meet our needs.
Last but not least, we are looking at taking on a paid Director of Fundraising on a part-time basis. If you love to fundraise and are able to commit twenty hours a week to the task, please let us know and we can discuss further.
And please feel free to forward on to anyone you think might be interested.
Kind regards,
Ayeshah Al-Humaidhi

This is a good thing that AFL is growing larger. They are doing a wonderful job in rescuing of Cats and Dogs & eventual adoption. They just give the poor animal a new lease of life.
People who have the skills that AFL is looking for, you would know that you are putting your time to a very good cause.
Wish AFL all the best.
