Volunteer Opportunities
MagiKids is a rapidly growing volunteer-run organization. There is always a need for more volunteers with a variety of different skill sets.
Listed below are some of the ways in which you can help out, but if you have other skills you can bring to the table, we encourage you to get in contact with us! We’ll take any help we can get in bringing Magic to more kids across North America.
Volunteer Opportunities List:

Resource Article Writer
We want our website to serve as a hub for anyone teaching youth how to play Magic. We’d love for anyone currently doing so to write about their experiences so we can share them! Sharing any obstacles you overcame or helpful tricks you learned could be invaluable to other teachers.
We could also use articles talking about the effects that Magic has on kids. These can be from teachers, parents, judges- anyone in the community who can speak to the benefits of teaching this game.

MagiKids Booth Volunteers
MagiKids attends MagicFests and other large events as far of our outreach and fundraising efforts. We are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help run the joint MagiKids/ Weirdcards booth, to supplement our core group of volunteers and allow us to attend more distant MagicFests.
Volunteers will need to be able to answer questions about both organizations, be able to handle donation transactions, and help set up or tear down the booth.

The Next Step:
If you think you are a good fit to help us run the MagiKids booth at an upcoming MagicFest you’re attending, visit our contact us page and get in touch with us. We’ll let you know whether or not we’ll be able to attend that event. We’ll also follow up with you to make sure you’re a good fit.
If we don’t attend your MagicFest this year, don’t give up- the way the Magic community is embracing MagiKids, who knows where we’ll go next year!
Email and Event Content Writer
We’re in search of someone to write email updates, as well as keep to keep our website up to date with Events. You can take on one or both of these roles.
You’ll be handed all the information you need- we simply need someone to stay on top of these updates, and send them out in a timely fashion!
