Print this Article | Send to Colleague

The SHRM Foundation seeks volunteer assistance at various times throughout the year to develop its new products and evaluate scholarship and research grant applications. Encourage your members to volunteer! Volunteers should be knowledgeable in HR and/or HR research and must be willing to meet project deadlines. All work may be completed virtually, and volunteer assignments last just two to three weeks per project.

Here are examples of typical Foundation projects:
• Review research grant applications; Read and provide feedback on proposals for research funding
• Review an outline and draft of a new Effective Practice Guidelines report; Recent topics include HR Technology, Onboarding, and Health and Wellness
• Evaluate student scholarship applications; Review award applications and rate strength of applicants.

To indicate interest in volunteering, please complete a "Get Involved‟ form online at www.shrm.org/foundation. After submitting your form, you will be contacted when a volunteer opportunity matching your skills becomes available. The SHRM Foundation appreciates your support!
