Regional Representatives

Quechua Benefit uses many forms of communication to reach people about its mission and to keep them informed of ways to become involved.

One of the key communication roles in our organization is that of a Representative.  Our goal is to have Representatives in different geographic regions of North America.  Their role is to look for opportunities to communicate with people in their areas about Quechua Benefit.  These might include speaking at service clubs, churches and other organizations, hosting a booth at an event, submitting articles to local publications and advising the Quechua Benefit Board of Directors on communication ideas.

If you have an interest in becoming a Representative, we invite you to submit a resume along with a cover letter outlining your skills and why you would like to become a Representative to mike@quechuabenefit.org.
