Marketing Talent Pool: Member's Wanted!
Do you have expertise in marketing? Maybe you work in the field? Maybe you majored in marketing? We need you in our Talent Pool!
Here's Why: Arthritis is the number one cause of workplace disability. It affects more children than diabetes. It costs the US economy over 120 billion dollars per year. The majority of people with arthritis, do not see a specialist and don't know that much of the pain they suffer and the damage to their joints is preventable.
The Marketing Talent Pool for the Arthritis Foundation can change this. The Marketing Talent Pool will act as resource group to create marketing strategies and resource pool to work on specific ad hoc activities in order to build overall awareness of the Arthritis Foundation and arthritis.
Not your ordinary committee!
- Once a year meeting as a full group
- Small, short-term commitment to projects you choose to work on
- Work with a group or work solo!
So, why not take the plunge and help build arthritis awareness so that we can reduce the cost and pain of arthritis in our state? All while meeting lots of interesting people in the marketing field!
If you or someone you know might be interested in joining, please call Poonam Balani at 732 283 4300 x 312 or email pbalani@arthritis.org.
