Vendor booth volunteer — 2nd Annual 5K Run & Walk for Mom's Mental Health

About this opportunity

My Good Brain (MGB) is a 501(c)(3) arts nonprofit dedicated to youth mental wellness through art and play. We are excited to have a vendor booth at the 2nd Annual 5K Run & Walk for Mom's Mental Health — and we need enthusiastic, community-minded volunteers to help us make it a great experience for families!

Our booth will be located right next to the kids' crafts table, putting us in the heart of the action. This is a wonderful chance to connect with San Diego families, share what MGB is all about, and make a real difference in a celebratory, high-energy community setting.

What you'll do:

1. Lead arts & crafts with kids and families: Facilitate simple, hands-on art activities at our booth — no art experience required, just enthusiasm!
2. Share printed resource materials: Help distribute MGB resources on youth mental wellness, art-based coping tools, and family support.
3. Sign up families for upcoming workshops: Chat with attendees about MGB's programs and help interested families register for workshops and events.
4. Grow our newsletter community: Invite attendees to join the MGB mailing list so they stay connected to all our programs and news.

What we're looking for:

• Warm, friendly communicators who love connecting with people
• Comfortable engaging with children and families in a busy outdoor event setting
• Passion for arts, mental health, youth wellness, or community building (any or all!)
• Reliable and able to commit to the full event shift (or a portion — let us know your availability!)
• No prior experience with MGB required — we will brief you on everything!
