MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN YOUR COMMUNITY – BECOME A TOWN COUNCIL VOLUNTEER!
Friends of the Council
The Friends of the Topanga Town Council (volunteers) was created so individuals of all ages could contribute to Topanga Canyon, but not to invest a vast amount of time doing so. This organization is designed so people can contribute individually—as much or as little as they want; but collectively to make a tremendous impact on our community.
Friends of the Council are people inside and outside of the canyon—homeowners, renters, business owners, parents, retirees, hipsters, artists, students and friends—who are working together to create and maintain a vibrant community. They are people who bring fresh perspectives, new resources and continued enthusiasm into Topanga—making it a vital and thriving community.
Being a volunteer can be an occasional or routine commitment—whatever you please. You pick the project or position that brings out your talent or desire of service. Being a Friend is a very flexible position that has few demands of time and no (or limited) meetings.
So, come on and get involved! Keep your finger on the pulse of what's going on in our canyon by volunteering. It’s a great way to network, get the latest and greatest in the canyon, and meet new friends. The Town Council is grateful for any amount of time you wish to give. We look forward to meeting YOU!
Become a Board Member
Or, if you want to make a larger contriburion, volunteer by becoming a Board Member. There are special requirements for Board Member participation.
The Topanga Town Council is a 501(c)(4) non-profit, non-governmental, all volunteer organization.
