The WPM Volunteer Bank

   With your help we can make  pantheism available to a larger and larger circle of people, and also bring the time closer when you can enjoy a pantheist group in your own locality or university.

    We are about to start accepting membership subscriptions, which will be set at a moderate and affordable level (they will also be tax deductible in the US).  With these funds we will be able to improve our Web services and reach out to wider groups of people.

The next steps from here are:
   - To set up local groups for support and celebration in as many locations (including universities) as possible.
    - To create Web services including:

A bulletin board with sub-lists for subjects such as art; "technical" philosophy & science; environment; therapy;  ceremony; local areas and countries.
- Automated Web subscription system by credit card.
- Web sale of pantheist literature, T-shirts, slide sets, badges etc.
- To promote the World Pantheist Movement via multiplying Web links and directory entries.
- To gather funds to support the above activities.

    These things will be possible only with the help of volunteers.

Creation or promotion of local groups in your area/state/country

    The mailing list is an important virtual community for members, but it is only virtual. In the long run local face-to-face groups, in local areas and in universities, will provide stronger support, stimulation and fun.

Please check this box if you are interested in becoming active in starting up a local group in your area or university.
Please check this box if you are interested in joining a World Pantheist Movement committee for local groups.
Please check this box if you are willing to act as a focal point for a wider area helping people who wish to form local pantheist groups, "meets" or circles.

 Please indicate your country or US state:

Please indicate area, city or university:


Membership processing

Currently our mailing list is growing at the rate of fifteen people per week. We do not know what the growth rate would be if we were dealing with membership subscriptions, but if not now then eventually it will reach this same level and may climb higher.
Please check this box if you are willing to help with welcoming new members, sending out membership material and leaflets. This may involve writing e-mails, or writing and posting letters. Postage and stationery costs will be paid by the World Pantheist Movement.


Promotion of the World Pantheist Movement on the Web

Rationale: The Scientific Pantheism web site has been the focal point for pantheists getting into contact with each other through the mailing list. Yet there are still probably hundreds of thousands of people who hold pantheist beliefs of this type, yet believe they are pretty much alone in doing so. There are also probably many others who, if they could only hear of this system, would know that it most closely corresponded with their own feelings.
To increase the numbers that we can reach, the site needs a wider range of links of the Web.
Achieving this involves contacting (often repeatedly) the various Web directories, specialist listings, and awards, to increase the number of links to the site. There is no lower limit to the amount of time that is valuable, so if you can spare half an hour a week, please volunteer.

Check one or two boxes below- if you are willing to promote the World Pantheism Movement site with general directories, awards, indexes , other religious sites etc.
[Please check two boxes only.]

Atheist & Humanist  Pagan & Wicca  Unitarian Universalist
Buddhist  Taoist   
General directories Religious directories  
Philosophy Science Nature & environment

Web services committee

We are looking for experts on Web services, for example:

CGI scripts for processing mailforms into database form.
Ordering products (eg, magazine back numbers, T-shirts etc) on the Web.

Please check here if you have advanced Web skills or experience and are willing to serve on our Web advisory committee.


Fundraising

The World Pantheism Movement will be raising funds through moderate subscription fees, but we will grow much faster if we secure donations and bequests.

Please check here if you are willing to help with fundraising - eg, researching and possibly approaching  high-level donors in business and the media.


Technical help

    From time to time the World Pantheist Movement may need advice in various technical areas, or volunteer help of various more specific kinds.
    If you might be willing to help in any special capacity,  please indicate special  skills you have that might be useful. Please include only skills that you have to a high or professional level.
