Volunteer with AMADC
Show up for the community that shows up for you
The Engine Behind Everything We Do
There is no better way to grow in this industry than to get your hands in it. AMADC volunteers are the engine behind everything we do, from the events our members look forward to all year, to the programs that have launched careers and changed trajectories across the DMV. Whether you have a few hours a month or are ready to take on a leadership role, volunteering with AMADC is one of the most rewarding investments you can make in your career and your community.

There Is a Place for Every Skill Here
AMADC volunteers come from every corner of the marketing world, and that is exactly what makes us strong. We are not looking for one type of person. We are looking for people who are good at what they do and want to put those skills toward something bigger than themselves.
The Builders
You love creating things from scratch. Whether that is a website, a campaign, a system, or a program, you want to see something go from idea to reality. Web developers, designers, marketers, and project managers all find a home here. Bonus points if you are excited about where AI and emerging technology are taking the industry.
The Connectors
Relationships are your superpower. You know how to open doors, build trust, and bring the right people together. If you have a background in sales, business development, membership, or partnerships, this is where you will shine
The Storytellers
You know how to make people feel something and take action. Copywriters, content creators, social media managers, videographers, and brand thinkers all play a critical role in how AMADC shows up in the world.
The Analysts
You see patterns where others see noise. If you live in data, research, insights, or technology, your skills help AMADC make smarter decisions and tell a more compelling story about our impact. If you are working at the intersection of AI and marketing analytics, we especially want to hear from you.
The Experience Makers
Events, logistics, programming, and the moments in between. You are the person who makes things happen and makes them memorable. If you love bringing people together, this is your world.
Volunteer Testimonials
AMADC has been one of the most valuable professional communities I’ve been part of. I started as a mentee, grew into a board member, and eventually became a mentor myself. That journey says a lot about what this organization offers. At every stage, the connections and conversations have been genuinely meaningful. Whether you’re early in your career or leading a team, there’s a place for you here.
Managing Director, AHA Marketing Strategy
“Volunteering with AMADC has been an incredibly rewarding experience, connecting me with some of the most supportive, curious, and inspiring marketers in the field while allowing me to contribute to a creative, innovative association where I’ve grown both professionally and personally.”
AMADC Volunteer Event Manager
“For the second consecutive year, I’ve had the privilege of serving as a mentor with the AMADC Marketing Mentors program. It has been one of the most rewarding investments of my professional journey. The experience offers a rare opportunity to both give back and grow by connecting with emerging marketing talent, sharing hard-won knowledge, and learning alongside a community of exceptional peers through the educational programming AMADC consistently delivers.”

Find Your Level
Volunteering with AMADC is designed to fit real life. There is no single path and no commitment too small to make a difference.
Some volunteers contribute a few hours a month, supporting a specific project, helping at an event, or lending their expertise to a focused initiative. Others take on a more significant role, leading a program, managing a committee, or stepping into a board position that shapes the direction of the entire organization. And some find their sweet spot somewhere in between, growing their commitment as they grow into the community.
What matters most is that you show up consistently, bring your best, and care about what you are helping to build.
