2022 Volunteer Recruitment
Would you like to serve the Leflore-Carroll Chapter as an officer, committee chair or board member?
Do you have ideas to share, want to learn more about the chapter, or volunteer?
Your Leflore-Carroll County MSU Alumni Chapter Needs You!
Your Leflore-Carroll Chapter of the Mississippi State University Alumni Association needs some “True Maroon” volunteers to help build a strong Bulldog presence in Leflore and Carroll counties.
So, what exactly is a chapter’s role with the MSU Alumni Association?
Basically, a chapter becomes "Mississippi State" in its community. The interest you stimulate, the service you provide, and the information you collect and disseminate helps the university, the community and the chapter members. Not only are you keeping your local alumni and Bulldog friends connected through communication, activities and events, you are recruiting prospective students.
The MSU Alumni Association is working to establish an organized and enthusiastic connection for our alumni, friends, and students. If you are interested in learning how you can help spread the Maroon and White, share your ideas, learn more about the chapter, volunteer for service, or just show your support, please contact Janet Downey, Coordinator of Chapter and Volunteer Programs, MSU Alumni Association, at jdowney@alumni.msstate.edu or 662.325.8515
How can you help?
- Volunteers for chapter leadership positions – community service chair, student recruiting chair, membership chair, social chair, young alumni chair, retiree/Senior Bulldogs chair and board members.
- Possible activities for 2022 – student recruiting Maroon Mail writing and events, 2022 Send-off Party, regular board meetings, community service activity, annual chapter meeting, family outings. The possibilities are endless.
- Chapter Goals/Initiatives – scholarship fund, community service project and recruiting students in your area
