On behalf of the Immigrant Writers of Association (IWA), we are delighted to extend an invitation to you to join
our Board of Directors in a volunteer capacity.

IWA is committed to amplifying the diverse voices of immigrants in Canada. As a board member, your
contributions will play a vital role in furthering our mission and helping us foster a platform for immigrant
writers to share their thoughts, stories and experiences.

We are looking for members with expertise in event management, accounting, publication, editing, public
relations, grant writing, or digital marketing.

You can be a tremendous asset to the board in helping us reach a much broader audience. 

  • Your experience in event management will be invaluable in organizing literary events and workshops that bring immigrant writers and their works into the spotlight.
  • Your accounting skills will aid in ensuring our financial stability and transparency, while your publication and editing background will help maintain the quality of our publications and resources.
  • Your expertise in public relations will assist in building strong connections within the literary community and beyond.
  • Additionally, your grant writing skills will be pivotal in securing funding to support our initiatives, and your digital marketing knowledge will help us reach a wider audience.

To be eligible for this role, we prefer that you are a published author in Canada or your country of origin, either in English or French.
While most of our business operations are conducted in English, we value and celebrate the linguistic diversity of our members. 

By joining the IWA Board of Directors, you will have the opportunity to shape the future of immigrant voices in Canada and contribute to a more inclusive and diverse literary landscape.

We look forward to your positive response to this invitation. If you accept, we will provide you with additional information about our upcoming meetings, activities, and responsibilities.
