The Council of Caribbean Organizations of Manitoba (CCOM) is in the process of updating its website and introducing new features that would allow for closer engagement between CCOM and the Caribbean community it represents; as well as, the community at large.
To assist in this regard CCOM has developed two exciting volunteer positions that are listed and detailed below. The Website Manager will maintain the website and the Email Marketing Manager will generate ongoing communications with CCOM members and the general community.
Please consider lending your skill and expertise to make a positive impact in the community. This could be a great opportunity for Marketing and Web Development students or anyone with a bit of technical skill interested in learning something new or sharpening your skills. Some training will be provided.
The website is a positive avenue for the community to reach out and keep in touch with this umbrella organization. To apply visit https://ccom-manitoba.com/volunteer/.
