Information about our current volunteer situation.

The Thunder Bay Independent Media Centre is a volunteer-run organization. This is a big job and we are currently in desperate need of volunteers! Our organization is open to the public, as we depend on diverse community involvement to support the decentralized nature of the IMC Network. Remember, IMC volunteers are free to contribute as much or as little as they like, however some contribution to the IMC project is a pre-requisite for participation in the decision-making process. The following is a list of volunteer "positions" that currently need to be filled.

-Idea people! Indymedia depends on the creativity of many people all over the world, including Thunder Bay.

-Fundraisers! We are struggling to keep our center funded and open to the public. If you have any fundraising ideas, are willing to contribute some time to existing fundraising ideas, or have some money to donate, then we need your help.

-Outreach people! Making and distributing posters, flyers and pamphlets, giving presentations to highschool, university, college or community groups, and anything else you can think of to rais awareness about corporate media issues and the Indymedia movement.

-Centre Staff! We want to keep the Thunder Bay Independent Media Resource Center open to the public. Our goal is to offer regular hours but we need people to contribute their time to staff the centre.

-Techs! Indymedia uses the latest code coming out of the open-source movement. We are in deperate need of folks who possess knowledge of, or who are willing to learn, any of the following : PHP, Linux (Debian), Apache, and networking.

-Global Liasons! The Indymedia Network utilizes e-mail listservers to organize local collectives, as well as organize on a global level. The opportunities here are incredibly diverse (see: http://lists.indymedia.org), however there are several key world-wide
lists that should ideally have representatives from our local collectives

This list will be updated as things change so check back, and also feel free to make any suggestions by adding your comments to this article or sending an email to imc-thunderbay@lists.indymedia.org .
