Join
LINK
Organizations and
individuals with a commitment to serving others and meeting LINK's
mission may seek to join LINK. LINK
welcomes full members and associate members – these two types of
memberships have different requirements and benefits. Membership
requirements and responsibilities are outlined below.
LINK
Full Membership Requirements and Responsibilities
A Full Member of LINK is an organization
that is actively willing and able to:
- Provide at least one
volunteer who will represent the organization at all board meetings,
serve as LINK's contact at the organization, and commit the
organization to supporting LINK's missions and functions.
- Provide and coordinate volunteers
to deliver food for LINK during one designated month per year.
- Collect and supply food
to the LINK pantry during one designated month per year, and
possibly during occasional critical food shortages.
- Host a LINK board meeting
during one designated month per year.
- Provide and coordinate
volunteers for a Holiday Basket program and/or host a Holiday Basket
program.
- Provide volunteers for
the Furniture Mission (Coordinators, Movers, etc.) as needed
- Provide financial support
for LINK.
- Publicize LINK
fundraisers and programs.
The LINK Board is composed of one volunteer representative from
each Full Member organization, elected Officers, and appointed Mission
Coordinators. Each Full Member, each Officer, and each Mission
Coordinator have one vote on board decisions.
LINK Associate Membership
Associate membership is
available for individuals and organizations that wish to support LINK
through volunteerism and other contributions, but cannot meet the
requirements of full membership. Associate
members may attend LINK board meetings, but may only vote if the
individual or the representative of the organization serves as an Officer
or Mission Coordinator.
