Make the most of your WHA membership by getting involved!  Getting involved can be as simple as helping out at the event registration table, inviting a friend or a colleague to attend a WHA event, suggesting a newsletter article idea, or asking your organization to become an Annual or Event Sponsor.

We are seeking WHA member volunteers to join the following committees:

The Membership Committee members identify, recruit and nominate prospective WHA members and provide membership development opportunities. Committee members will also help develop and executive strategies for reviewing and retaining existing members.

Committee members help plan and execute fundraising activities and special events.

Events Committee

The Events Committee members will work collaboratively to plan and host programmatic events including workshops, tours, galas; single topic meetings to educate, network or provide discussion among the membership about topics of interest and concern; and community volunteer opportunities. Members of the committee will assist in development of ideas, coordination of speakers, costs, refreshments and venue of each event, and will work with the Administrative Coordinator to arrange for registration, distribution of any relevant attendees’ materials and contractual requirements.

The Programs Council will focus on the development and enhancement of mentorship initiatives and internship opportunities. Working collaboratively with other committee members, the Council will play a key role in fostering professional growth and facilitating meaningful connections within the organization.
