Volunteer

Share your talents, grow new skills, and make fun memories—all while making a difference.

Whether you're an established professional, student (18+), retiree, solopreneur, or part of an employee resource group, we’d love to hear from you.

General Volunteering

We offer a variety of volunteer roles:

  • Committees: Support the essential operations of our organization.

  • Programs: Assist in delivering impactful initiatives like our Virtual Education and Mentorship Programs.

  • Projects, Events, and Tasks: Volunteer opportunities to make a meaningful impact without an ongoing commitment.

  • Community Representation: Act as an ORPIB representative at external events, including Pride celebrations and other community engagements.

  • Regional Advisory Council: Strategically connect ORPIB with Q+ and Ally individuals, businesses, and nonprofits outside of the Portland Metro Area, and help shape our Expansion initiative.

We are committed to making your volunteer experience mutually beneficial by aligning your skills and goals with opportunities to positively impact the community.

Board Opportunities

Looking to make a deeper commitment? ORPIB has two separate Boards for our Chamber and Foundation. Board development outreach is next scheduled for Fall 2025.

Serving on a board requires a more formal process than general volunteering. As a board member, you will play a pivotal role in shaping ORPIB’s mission and direction while fostering meaningful change in the LGBTQ+ business community.
