JOIN THE TEAM!
Make a meaningful difference in the lives of young people in Madison by volunteering for a staff position at ASIF. We are looking for a couple local folks who can donate a few hours a month to keep the foundation humming along smoothly. Opportunities are described below, and we provide training.

IT MANAGER - Seeking a person with some website, social media and digital platform experience to fill role of IT manager. The workload is perfect for a retired or semi-retired individual, since task-time averages just a couple hours a week. Applicant must live in or near Madison, Wisconsin in order to be considered.
Our IT manager maintains email accounts, updates the website, posts to social media, designs digital media, creates event ticketing, and manages the donation platform. Interested in learning more about the IT Manager position? Tell us about yourself at [email protected]

SECRETARY/TREASURER - Seeking one person with some small-business, non-profit or administrative experience to fill two roles, that of both secretary and treasurer. The two sets of responsibilities nest together nicely and workload is perfect for a retired or semi-retired individual, since task-time averages just a couple hours a week. Applicant must live in or near Madison, Wisconsin in order to be considered.

Secretarial responsibilities are essentially those of a business manager, who will answer general email inquiries, collect/process mail, schedule/attend quarterly board meetings, sign contracts, ensure by-laws/policies are followed, and keep the foundation legally complaint.

Treasurer responsibilities are paying bills, filing IRS Form 990-EZ, and using spreadsheets to track deposits and withdrawals. You need not be a certified accountant or bookkeeper. Interested in the Secretary/Treasurer position? Tell us about yourself at [email protected]

The team raised $3080, which will be divided amongst the zoo, its Ol Jogi Wildlife Conservancy partner in Kenya, and ASIF. Thanks to everyone who signed onto the team and to those who gave in advance of the event!

More photos from our third annual spring fundraiser!

Our third annual spring fundraiser was a touching and joyful event. We raised over $5000 with friends, old and new, over the course of a beautiful May evening. We thank everyone who showed up to support 5 Door Recovery, our nonprofit recipient for 2025. Every dollar raised will help cover room-and-board shortfalls for people enrolled in their residential recovery program. Thank you, everyone, for helping rebuild young lives disrupted by substance use disorder.
