Bellow are several of KMA’s committees. We encourage everyone to get involved with at least one committee, and we even welcome multi-committee participation. The committees serve as opportunities to participate and help provide further substance to the membership experience.
Philanthropy Committee: This committee will be responsible for planning and executing (with other member support) all philanthropy activities for the year. The first project we will be working on is Cobb Christmas. For this project we will be volunteering hours durning the “Night before Cobb Christmas” event, creating volunteer/donor brochures, implementing an annual event that will be held on Kennesaw’s campus, and working increase the number of toy donations from their last years numbers. This is a great opportunity to have fun, help less fortunate kids, and be creative. For more information you will want to contact Eric Southerland, he is the Philanthropy chair, at esouther@students.kennesaw.edu
Fundraising Committee: One of our most important efforts during the year is fundraising. This will be done through on campus activities as well as retaining corporate sponsorships. We need a fun group of people that will take responsibility of organizing and executing fundraising events throughout the year. We are looking to have 3-4 small ones per semester and 1 large event per semester. If you are interested in this you can either contact Whitley Cooper, VP, at wcooper7@students.kennesaw.edu or Jennifer Beech at the KMA email. Since we do not have a fundraising chair we are looking for people who can be self motivated. If there is anyone interested in filling the fundraising chair position please let us know.
Communication Committee: People dont know what they dont know….so, if we dont tell them they may never know. The communication committee will be responsible for creating ads/flyers for all events, keeping up our Facebook and linked in accounts, and maintaining the KMA bulletin board on the third floor of the BB. We will also be kicking of a KMA campaign where the sole purpose is to spread the word about KMA. If you are interested please contact Chris Roell, Communication chair, at chrisroell@gmail.com.
In the near future we will also push to form membership and professional development committees but for right now we would like to keep those as whole organization activities.
This Wednesday Oct. 14 at 5pm in BB268 there will be a general KMA member meeting. The meeting will start out with a small introduction to KMA for all the new faces attracted from last weeks membership drive, and then proceed into discussion about various opportunities to participate and get more involved.
The Fall Semester 2009 General Membership Informational Meeting PowerPoint presentation is below. If you have any questions, then feel free to comment or contact KMA at KennesawMarketing@gmail.com.
The website is still under construction. Expect the look and layout to change dramatically as time passes.
