VOLUNTEER
Periodically, throughout the year, we will ask for volunteers to help facilitate events throughout the state or to donate machines for use. Volunteering is optional (appreciated!) and signup details can be found on our “Events” page!
HOW ARE VOLUNTEERS CHOSEN?
1. For most events, Austin Typewriter, Ink. is allotted “volunteer passes”. Depending on the number of passes we are provided, we start to plan.
2. The size and length of the event and expected turnout then tell us how many volunteers (people and machines!) are required.
3. Then we need at least one typewriter repair person—two if there are a lot of machines. They are automatically thrown into a volunteer spot.
4. Then we offer the next available volunteer spots to those people providing the most typing machines for the event. Naturally they want to keep an eye on their machines ;)
5. Any available spots left, we fill using the online form. First come, first served!
