Volunteer

AAWA is busier than ever. If you want to use your skills for the betterment of Northwest transportation, we can always use an extra hand.

Below is a list of our current volunteer needs. If you are interested in any of these positions, please contact AAWA to inquire.

Treasurer

AAWA is in need of a volunteer with the willingness and/or financial background to be AAWA's Treasurer.  AAWA can provide professional financial assistance such as a CPA when needed to ensure compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and financial practices.

Writing

Do you have ideas for better trains in the Northwest? Do you stay up-to-date with the latest rail news? AAWA’s goal is to offer thought-provoking educational materials for our elected officials and the public. We’re happy to accept interesting, informative content on the connections between rail and the health of our society, especially topics related to economics, the environment, and equity. We especially need assistance with editing our quarterly newsletter and creating content for our website and social media pages. You can play a critical role in educating key decision makers!

Event Planning

Do you have experience planning great events and making them happen? AAWA is looking to hold more events across the Northwest, both digitally and in-person. If you enjoy working with others to plan events, assist with setup and takedown, or manage Zoom meetings, we need you!

Outreach

Do you want to help AAWA spread the word about more and better trains? Are you a people person who likes to help build and maintain relationships for important causes? Creating a better transportation system starts with local involvement. We need you to help engage more people in the movement for more equitable transportation in the Northwest!
