We are always looking for volunteers to assist with the goals and objectives for TPG.  We have included areas in which we could use volunteers below:

Events and Activities

Help plan and participate in various TPG sponsored events-Geeks Night Out Tempe, AAGT annual conference, Fall Social, Spring Education Forum, SENG Parent Groups, and other PACE events throughout the year

Social Media

Help keep TPG members informed of TPG activities on facebook/instagram and email newsletters.

Fundraising Activities

Help TPG define and execute fund raising activities.

Volunteering not only supports the PACE program, but it has so many personal benefits like:

- Boosts personal confidence

- Becoming part of a community

- Making new friends

- Having fun

- Showing your kids, you support them and the organization that is strengthening their learning experience!

join the tpg board:

We have amazing gifted students and teachers throughout the district who benefit from the support provided by TPG.  The board organizes strong fundraising activities, coordinates events for parents and students as well as advocates at the state level for improved education resources.  Being part of the board is a terrific opportunity to help other parents and to learn even more in the process of doing so.

The TPG board is comprised of a President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer.  Nominations and elections if needed take place in December with the term begining in January.  Each member is asked to stay on for 2 years to ensure a healthy and stable organization.

The board meets monthly in person or virtually and members are asked to attend all TPG events (about 4/yr).

Being part of the board will be an enriching experience:

• Meet interesting people who are passionate about the gifted community. 

• Learn new skills that are helpful in life and your career.   Being part of a board is great for a resume :)

• Stretch all your intellectual and emotional muscles. Board service at its best allows you to bring your full self to the organization 

• Better connected to your community and making lasting relationships
