Attention LA: Now you too can network in your field while helping L.A. nonprofits!

Starting in September, The Taproot Foundation has begun recruiting in Los Angeles to add to our growing network of volunteers. We are beginning our LA presence with our Marketing practice and are currently looking for experienced professionals with expertise in any of the following areas:

• Executive Management

Our inaugural volunteer orientation will be in October with our first round of projects kicking off in the New Year, so apply now and be among the first in LA to "do it pro bono".
