We strive to give students an opportunity to gain and work on leadership skills, while also providing them a chance to dip their toes into the world of sustainability. We provide a diverse range of services and opportunities for involvement to the campus community. Our programs during the school year include a sustainable market (Green For Good Market), a Bike Library &amp; Workshop, a blog team, an events team, and our campus Thrift Store (SUBsprout).</span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">However, this intake period is just for the Special Events and Thrift Store teams. Our GFGM and SOT teams will open in mid July, while Eco Ambassador (junior volunteer) applications open in August.</span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\"> All of our programs are delivered by students and designed for students. </span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Thank you for your interest in volunteering with Sustain SU for the Fall and Winter! This is the first round of hiring for our Fall/Winter Senior volunteers or Sustainable Leaders for the Special Events Team and the Thrift Store Team. </span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">The deadline to apply for the Special Events Team and the Thrift Store Team is July 10th, 2026 at 9:00AM.</span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\"> If you are interested in being a Senior Volunteer for the Green For Good Market or Sustainable Outreach Team (formerly Sustainable Actions Team) please check back here on July 13th, 2026. </span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline\">Sustainable Leader (Senior Volunteer) position information:</span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\"> These volunteers commit 5 - 7 hours per week, late-July through April. In this position you’ll assist the Sustain SU Coordinator in hiring and running the Eco Ambassadors (junior volunteers), learn volunteer management skills, and leadership skills. This position requires bi-weekly and monthly meetings, as well as shifts running the actual team. </span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">Sustainable leaders will be required to attend an in-person interview between July 15th - 24th, followed by an orientation date listed below. </span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\"> </span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">THE SPECIAL EVENTS TEAM (SET)</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">The Special Events team is one of our two </span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">higher time commitment teams. </span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">This team is run by 2-3 Sustainable Leaders and a team of approximately 10 Eco Ambassadors (junior volunteers). This team is tasked with planning out external events designed to engage the campus community in sustainability. There is flexibility in the types of events they run but previous examples include a Wildfire panel, a Sustainable Research Night, and a Sustainability Case Competition. This team also plans out volunteer appreciation events for our team of roughly 80 volunteers. This team requires a high level of commitment and will meet with staff for a minimum of 1 hour each week plus an additional several hours of work each week spent running EA team meetings and the actual planning / organization / prep of/for events.</span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">THE SUBSPROUT THRIFT STORE TEAM</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">The Thrift Store team helps run Sustain SU’s on campus thrift store, SUBsprout! This team is our second </span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">high time commitment team. </span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">In August, Sustainable Leaders will help sort, organize, and inventory our donations with help from the staff team. They will also prepare for and staff the year’s first </span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic\">Sprout Ups</span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\"> (our fun name for when the store is open) for Lister Move in, Campus Kickoff, and Week of Welcome. </span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">From September to April, Thrift Store SLs can expect to run sorting shifts with a team of Eco Ambassadors as well as take on the role of “on shift manager” during our weekly Sprout Ups. SLs can anticipate having one sorting shift every week as well as longer Sprout Up shifts on Wednesdays and Thursdays. The thrift store team has regularly scheduled volunteer shifts, meaning that while it requires a higher level of commitment, shifts and hours are consistent and stay the same throughout a semester. Availability on Wednesdays and Thursdays is strongly preferred. </span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">About Sustain SU Volunteer Program and Training</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Our volunteers are at the heart of our many programs. Much of what we do comes directly from the hard work of our student volunteers. With this in mind, our volunteers will attend training sessions at the start of the volunteer term that are designed to teach them about our programs and how they work, communication and attendance requirements and other skills they’ll need to work on to thrive in Sustain SU and throughout their professional lives. With this in mind, the mandatory dates for the Fall/Winter volunteer programs are as follows:</span></p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">Special Events Team Sustainable Leaders are required to attend various orientation sessions between July 27th - July 30th. </span></li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">Thrift Store Sustainable Leaders are required to attend various orientation sessions between between August 4th - 7th </span></li>\n</ul>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">EQUITY AND INCLUSION</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">The UASU’s mission is to serve, engage, and represent students. To do that well we need an organization that is representative of the students we serve. We are committed to creating a diverse environment that fosters a sense of belonging and empowerment. We actively encourage applications from members of groups experiencing barriers to equity.</span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt\"><a href=\"https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfnFKk27MrzjSdwkYwsUWaXcSamynwR39ht59begUWXniS08Q/viewform?usp=dialog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif\">Please complete your application through the link.</span></a><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif\"> The deadline to apply is </span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: bold\">9:00AM on July 10th.</span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif\"> For questions about this posting, please contact Sustain SU at [email protected].</span></span></p>",
