"It was an amazing opportunity for me. I got to combine my interest for film with my

desire to help the environment."

- Sammy Younan, Planet in Focus volunteer

1. Are you passionate about the environment?
2. Excited about film and video?
3. Want to meet likeminded people?
4. Want to feel warm and fuzzy and not embarrassed to say so?

If the answer is yes to all of the above, then volunteering at Planet in Focus is for you.

We need passionate volunteers that can spare a little or a lot of time year round to:

• Join the Communications Committee (produces the PIF e-newsletter, coordinates this

         web site, works on marketing and publicizing PIF)

• Join the Partner Relations Committee (helping to introduce PIF to likeminded people and

         organizations)

• Join the Fundraising Committee (growing our individual and corporate sponsors base

         writing grants)

At the 6th annual Planet in Focus: International Environmental Film & Video Festival

from September 28 to October 2 this year, we need your help with:

• Box Office
• Ushering
• Transportation of equipment - meeting/delivering filmmakers at the airport
• Postering and distributing program schedules
• Gala Screening Party

As a non-profit organization, Planet in Focus is thankful for the valuable contributions

made by our many volunteers and know that we couldn't run the organization without

your help. We value diversity and invite volunteers from all backgrounds and levels of experience.
