Friends of Lesotho is currently looking for members to assist with the following tasks:

Endowment management

Annual Meeting planning

Fundraising

Editing audio files for web posting of teleconferences

Database management

Website development

Assistance with routine correspondence (new member welcome letters, etc.)

News collection

Newsletter assembly and mailing

Additionally, we need people to step into committee roles so that as current committee members retire, new members can take over. Because all positions are filled by unpaid volunteers, Board members included, we try to take a relaxed approach to what we do. We work mostly by email and teleconference and require only a few hours commitment per month.

If you'd be willing to help out please contact any of the Board members above, or learn more on the nomination/applications page. We look forward to hearing from you!
