Sharing your story with a broader audience
Here are two ways you can stay involved with Medical Teams International. First is by speaking at our Tuesday morning Chapel service. These presentations are short, about 30 minutes and volunteers usually share slides and significant experiences from their trip.
The second opportunity is to participate in our Speakers Bureau. You would be included in our list of volunteers and staff willing to speak to various groups at various venues (e.g. churches, schools and civic organizations). If you are interested in either of these options please inform your team coordinator or e-mail Chiqui Flowers at cflowers@medicalteams.org.
Sharing your volunteer experience can be a beneficial for you and others. Think of ways you can do this and potential audiences who might benefit from it. Medical Teams International can help you share your story by providing:
- Information for people who want to volunteer
- General informational brochures
- PowerPoint presentations
- Giving envelopes
- Newsletters
- Displays
- Videos
- Other items as needed
Medical Teams International encourages volunteers to share their stories with newspapers, magazines and any other publications. However, we do ASK all volunteers to submit their stories to us for review before publication. Please send all stories to Chiqui Flowers at cflowers@medicalteams.org.
Please e-mail or call us at 800.959.4325 to request promotional materials.
Staying Involved
In addition to sharing your story with friends and family, at work, church or through the media, what are some other ways you can make the most of your volunteer experience?
Think of three concrete actions you can commit to that will keep you involved with Medical Teams International or with responding to people in need around the world. Write them down and share them with someone who will help you keep those commitments.
