Consider volunteering for one of the exciting opportunities below or join one of our four volunteer-run teams!
Current Volunteer Opportunities
Event and Community Photographer
OCTOBER 2024: Experience Princeton could use the eyes of a few volunteer photographers to capture magical moments at cultural and business events in the community. These photos will be used in social media and ongoing print and digital ad campaigns.
Selfie-Station Attendant
OCTOBER 2024: Experience Princeton has a rolling selfie-station that is available for area businesses and non-profits to utilize. Take the station to different locations and events, show how it is used, and make sure it gets back to Experience Princeton in one piece.
Cleanliness Ambassador
OCTOBER 2024: Keep an eye on the streets and sidewalks to ensure that Princeton is in top physical condition. Where there is litter, trash cans left out for a long time, or things that could use a quick fix - work with EP and businesses to help them make those changes.
Small Business Saturday Organizer
OCTOBER 2024: Reach out to businesses and gather offers and activities for Small Business Saturday. EP will help to promote these as part of a campaign leading up to the Saturday after Thanksgiving when Small Business Saturday promotions are held nationwide.
Storefront Design Advisor
OCTOBER 2024: Advise businesses on quick low-cost ways that they can improve the appearance of their storefront. Encourage these businesses to apply for an EP Storefront Improvement grant. A total of 10 grants of $500 each will be given out through June 30, 2025 or until funds are all spent. Design guidelines and training will be provided as part of this project.
Ribbon Cutting Coordinator
OCTOBER 2024: On average there are 15 new businesses that open in Princeton each year. Help increase the profile of these businesses through organizing high-visibility ribbon cuttings with businesses, elected officials, and VIPs.
“The work of Experience Princeton is so important. As a member of the Board, I‘ve played a role in projects like Restaurant Week that have made a positive economic and community imprint on Princeton. And it helps that the people are wonderful to work with!”
