Volunteers
The Diamond Valley Writers' Guild is a non-profit organization that relies exclusively on volunteers for all aspects of administering, maintaining and growing the guild. From the volunteer Board of Directors that administer the guild, the volunteers that make the hybrid meeting system work, the volunteers that keep the website and all the social media accounts up-to-date, the volunteers that facilitate our annual poetry and prose meetings, the volunteers that coordinate writing and critique groups and finally the members themselves that help promote the guild to others.
We are successful because of our volunteers and ALWAYS need more volunteers!
