Volunteer Opportunities – Overviews – 90.7 FM
Volunteer Position: Office Helper
Overview: Light office and light cleaning duties. This position is great for
a retired person that just wants to “do a little something” without
a big time commitment and without a lot of new things to learn. It’s
perfect for a stay-at-home parent while the children are in school. It’s
perfect for high school or college students looking for something worthwhile
to do while they’re not in class. In many work environments, office
helpers are some of the most under-appreciated positions in the office. At
WAY Radio, they’re one of the most important because the one who answers
the phone or greets a guest is the first impression a listener will have of
the station. If you’re a naturally positive and happy person, you’ll
have the opportunity to use those character traits in a Christian environment
at a ministry that is truly having an impact in the community.
Volunteer Position: Public Relations Representative
Overview: This job presents an opportunity for a volunteer(s) to get out in
the community to talk about and give information/awareness about the work
of WAY Radio. Direct contact with the local community helps spread the word
on the work we do. Any “family” or “Christian” oriented
events in our area presents us with a public relations opportunity. The public
comes to talk to a "live" person and may see either a staff member
or a station volunteer. This helps to make us visible in our communities and
will help the station grow. If you like talking to the public and sharing
your story of how WAY Radio meets needs in your life, this is a great opportunity
for you to become involved and volunteer.
Volunteer Job Description: Remote/Event Helpers
Overview: Station events and remote broadcasts are where we’re able
to reach out into the community and meet face to face. A great event seems
effortless, but it has to start with preparation and attention to detail,
in some cases, months in advance. Events should also be fun for the public
and for those representing the station. This is the job for you if you love
WAY Radio, and enjoy having fun and meeting people. While events are fun,
they might also be strategically ministry minded. Attention to this detail
can make eternal differences in the lives of our listeners.
Volunteer Job Description: Board Operator
Overview: A radio station is only as good as its on-air product. In order
for a radio station to grow, there is the constant need to train and develop
future “talent”. We need individuals willing to assist WAY Radio
with the on-air operations by learning the board and automation. These positions
will not necessarily be an on-air speaking position, although that could develop
in the future. We’re needing individuals capable of running the station
while the “talent” is on location elsewhere, and individuals who
would be able to step up and fill in for an emergency.
Volunteer Job Description: Friendraiser Phone Helper
Overview: WAY Radio is largely supported by listeners. Some of our donors
have been giving to the station for a long time. We strive to communicate
with them throughout the year, and meet the needs they have as a donor. There
are thousands of more listeners who have never given to WAY Radio. Twice a
year we invite those listeners to become donors as well through a “Friendraiser”
day. On those days (one in the spring, one in the fall) we invite their phone
calls and ask them to support the station. We need phone volunteers to take
their phone calls and gather the information we need to work with them as
a donor. If you’re friendly on the phone, and only have a couple of
days a year to volunteer, this could be the position for you.
Volunteer Job Description: Promotions Call Outs
Overview: One of the irritating parts of life is getting those telemarketing
calls while you’re at dinner with the family. One of the more effective
means that businesses have in getting the word out about their product or
service is telemarketing. How do you marry those two thoughts? How can WAY
Radio use call outs to help the station without being an irritant to those
they call? The answer is by being selective about when call outs are done,
and even more selective about why we’re calling out. We’re selling
a relationship with the listener. An opportunity for our product to help them,
and we’re not looking for their money to make this happen. Whether its
phone surveys or just a call of introduction, our call outs can be effective
and helpful to the station, but more importantly, life impacting for those
we call.
Volunteer Job Description: Volunteer Coordinator
Overview: For WAY Radio to succeed in the future, and in our current economy,
more needs to be done with fewer dollars. We need to find individuals who
support the mission of WAY Radio and have a little bit of time to invest into
the ministry. Volunteers give of their time because they believe in the cause,
however, they also need to be appreciated, and be placed in the proper position
to give them satisfaction in their work. The volunteer coordinator will help
recruit, train, and organize the volunteers with a focus on making the volunteer
position a “win-win” for both the volunteer and the station.
Volunteer Job Description: 90.7 FM Morning Show Helper
Overview: The morning show on WAY Radio provides encouraging music and information
that our listener needs to get the day going. Our morning show host has a
lot to do during the show to make the radio station sound smooth, and even
more to do once the show is over! Help is needed behind the scenes to make
the job easier and the ministry better. Guests to the program are an important
part of the show, so the Morning Show Helper will help line up the guests
in advance, and help prepare the Host to perform the program and interviews
effectively.
