MASC PAC Volunteer Board Member

About the MASC PAC

The mission of the Massachusetts Sierra Club Political Action Committee (MASC PAC) is to support candidates for state and local office whose records and policy platforms align with the Sierra Club’s values and to otherwise advance pro-environmental legislation at the state and local levels. The MASC PAC contributes to the campaigns of pro-environment candidates in elections identified as “priority races” by the PAC Board in conjunction with the Political Committee of the Massachusetts Chapter of the Sierra Club.

About the Role

The MASC PAC Board meets virtually once a month for 40 minutes to plan fundraising initiatives, identify priority campaigns, and discuss candidate support. In addition to attending regular meetings, volunteer members of the MASC PAC Board spend 1-3 hours per week on the following responsibilities:

• Researching Sierra Club-endorsed candidates running for election to identify priority campaigns
• Liaising with Sierra Club Chapter staff, members, and/or local groups
• Giving presentations at Chapter or group events to promote the PAC
• Phone banking on behalf of the PAC
• Updating the PAC’s Facebook page, providing updates to supporters
• Drafting fundraising emails, blog posts, or other written updates
• Coordinating fundraising events

Exact responsibilities of Board members reflect individuals’ interests and experience within the mission of the PAC.
