Sign up and volunteer to be a part of our We Don’t Waste Speakers Bureau. As part of this group volunteers act as representatives of We Don’t Waste at various tabling events and speaking engagements around the city. These individuals are required to first complete a set amount of hours at either our Distribution Center or Mobile Food Market volunteer shifts. Bureau members are also required to complete a training focused on learning about We Don’t Waste as an organization - our mission, history, and day to day activities as well as a baseline knowledge of food waste and hunger in Colorado. Becoming a member of the Bureau is a great opportunity to increase community engagement, improve public speaking, and practice leadership skills. SPECIAL NOTE Please do not sign up for a shift on this project unless you are a current member of the Speakers Bureau and have attended a training. If you have not attended a training but are interested in participating please contact julia@wedontwaste.org.
