Volunteer Testimonials

Being an Association Forum volunteer is rewarding in many ways. Past and current volunteers have told us:

"Volunteering for Association Forum is a great way to get engaged and grow in the association and meetings industry."

"Challenge the odds, make a difference. Volunteers contribute to the success of Associations!"

"Volunteering for Association Forum is always a meaningful and worthwhile experience, not to mention how much knowledge, insight and leadership skills I have gained from my volunteer roles over the years. Being able to give back is very important to me because Association Forum has given me so much. If it weren't for AF I would not have my CAE. They provided a vast amount of opportunities to obtain CAE credit (most at no cost) that enabled me to be eligible to apply."

"I'm very grateful for having had the opportunity to be a contributing writer for FORUM magazine and provide the follow-up stories to two past signature stories for the Centennial celebration. The best part was interviewing the major players and stakeholders of the associations that were featured in these stories and being able to write about the great national impact they had."
