Volunteering for the Alliance
Volunteers are always welcome at the Alliance for Affordable Energy! There are several different departments that could always use the extra help. So, whether you are office saavy, enjoy working with youth or just looking to lend a helping hand the Alliance has an opportunity for you!
What will I do as an Alliance volunteer?
Our Regulatory Division gives those interested in Environmental Law the opportunity to gain insight into what it takes to analyze policy and to advocate proposals.
The Climate and Clean Energy Dept. researches global warming and acts as a public educator through speaking engagements.
There are a few different opportunities in the Sustainable Rebuild Dept. including..
- In the Fee-For-Service Program we are developing a business plan to provide revenue generating services oriented around Home Energy Ratings and possibly light weatherization services.
- Our BuildSmart Learning Center is a cutaway model home that demonstrates various 'green living' practices. The display was created as a public education tool that targets both contractors and community members. The space has yet to reach its capacity in terms of potential - we are looking for help to identify potential sponsors, different ways to market the space and a potential re-design or maintenance of the space.
- The LA Green Corps. is program that teaches at-risk youth weatherization, resume writing and basic job training skills. There is a good opportunity to fulfill mentorship and crew leader assistant roles.
The Alliance also has opportunites for those who would like to better understand the dynamics of running an office in a non-profit organization.
What are some of the benefits of volunteering at the Alliance?
- Great networking opportunities.
- Develop valuable business skills.
- Experience in a comfortable work environment.
- Gain knowledge in sustainable living and energy efficiency.
