Nonprofit
Volunteer Online Community Host & Zoom Facilitator
Details
Description
Mindful Founders Inc. (MFI) is a Colorado nonprofit supporting the emotional and financial health of solopreneurs, freelancers, and founders with under five employees through free peer support groups, emergency micro-grants, coaching, and education. Most of the people we serve work alone, and our online community is often where they first find others who get it.
You'll be a friendly, steady presence who co-facilitates our peer support sessions on Zoom alongside the Executive Director. Together you'll open the room, guide the conversation using MFI's facilitation guide, and help everyone who shows up leave feeling less alone and more supported than when they logged on.
What you'll do:
- Co-facilitate two 60-minute Zoom sessions per month
- Post and update events on Meetup, welcome new members, and answer basic member questions
- Run Zoom as co-host: admit registered participants, manage the waiting room, and keep the session secure
- Set and hold group agreements, including confidentiality
- Follow MFI's escalation protocol if a participant is in distress, and notify the Executive Director the same day
- Track attendance, send the short post-session survey, and share a monthly check-in with the ED
Who you are:
- A current or former solopreneur, freelancer, or small business owner (strongly preferred)
- Experienced leading or co-leading groups, such as support groups, masterminds, workshops, coaching, or teaching
- Comfortable using Zoom's co-host controls
- Warm but boundaried: you can redirect a conversation without shutting someone down
- Clear on the line between peer support and therapy. This is a peer role, not counseling, so no clinical license is needed.
Time commitment:
About 3–4 hours per month, with a 6-month minimum.
What you get:
- Hands-on facilitation experience with a growing Colorado founder community
- Training on MFI's facilitation guide and escalation protocol
- A LinkedIn recommendation or reference letter after 6 months of service
Requirements:
18+, reliable internet, a quiet private space, and a signed volunteer and confidentiality agreement before your first session.
