What are micro-volunteer opportunities?
Volunteering is a great way for AAST members and associate members to become involved in the AAST community. However, not all members and associate members are able to volunteer for committees due to logistical or time constraints. Micro-volunteering will allow members to volunteer their time in short and convenient chunks with defined and achievable goals.
