Hi there, thanks for your interest in the PMI Educational Foundation! To learn more and keep up-to-date about PMIEF programs, please consider signing up for our once monthly e-newsletter, PM for Social Good (upper right corner of www.pmief.org).
If you are looking to get involved locally, and are a chapter member, visit http://pmief.org/community/pmief-liaisons to learn if your chapter has established a PMIEF Liaison, a dedicated chapter volunteer committed to communicating about PMIEF in the chapter.
And, if you're looking to start a program for social good in your community, please check out "Tips & Tricks for Giving Back", one of our blogs today: http://www.projectmanagement.com/blog-post/24030/Tips-and-Tricks-for-Giving-Back--Navigating-the-PMIEF-Learning-Resources-Library.
Feel free to follow up with me with more questions!
Thanks Kendra. Appreciate it.

I attended the first webinar and I was pleased to have learned about volunteer work.
I would like to be more involved in this "giving back" initiative.
Cheers.

As with the other related posts, happy to see these efforts. . I created an account and signed up for the newsletter. Shame it couldn't have SSO as with PMI and ProjectManagement.com, so to just be able to sign up and in with PMI credentials.
Look forward to learning more.
