Volunteering

Volunteerism is the engine which keeps our Chapter running smoothly. Not just from the standpoint of committees, boards, and special activities, but also in the sense of being Good Corporate Citizens in the communities in which we live and work.

We, the members of the DC Chapter of IAEE, live in and work in the greatest country and the greatest Industry in the world! It stands to reason that we should be HAPPY to give back to this Industry and to our community.

There are many ways to volunteer: You can serve on one of many committees within the Chapter; you can volunteer to get on the Board of the Chapter or you can donate some time to support our charities such as the Friends of Guest House and the Capital Area Food Bank. You can also volunteer to help out with specific events like the CEIR golf tournament held in the DC area. There Are Many Ways!

We have a healthy, vibrant Chapter full of some of the finest people I know and have met through volunteer activities. So it is without hesitation that I send out this appeal to “get involved” with the Chapter's volunteering opportunities. You might very well meet your next BFF!

Our next upcoming Community Service project will be in June at the Capital Area Food Bank. For more details look on our chapter website, or feel free to contact me directly.

Thank you,

B. Murphy, CEM
Chair, IAEE DC Chapter

IAEE Members say...

I am a member of IAEE, and particularly the DC chapter of IAEE, because it is one of the most rewarding and fulfilling experiences I have ever encountered in this Industry. My membership with IAEE has taken me to places that I only dreamed of! Because of IAEE, I have been able to teach CEM classes all over the country and in other parts of the world! The Networking opportunities and the camaraderie of belonging to the DC chapter are HUGE benefits of membership. If I had to prioritize where to spend my “marketing dollars,” my first choice would be with IAEE.

I have been a member of IAEE for over 30 years, starting with the early NAEM days, to IAEM, and now through IAEE. Throughout this journey, the DC chapter has provided me with invaluable networking opportunities and educational experiences thanks to the incredible peers I've encountered. My interactions within and beyond the chapter have significantly contributed to my growth and have played a crucial role in shaping me into the successful professional I am today at Freeman. Freeman has collaborated with the local chapter in various capacities, and we have greatly valued the opportunity to support and work alongside such exceptional leadership. Our shared commitment is to deliver the highest quality service and education to our customers, incorporating the latest trends and data to ensure mutual success.

As someone deeply passionate about the world of exhibitions and events, being a part of IAEE holds immense importance to me.

Because of IAEE, I have had the opportunity to teach globally and to have very special experiences that I will always appreciate. I highly recommend that if you are in the industry, you should be involved with IAEE!
