Volunteer Application

The International Living Future Institute is hosting its 14th annual Living Future on May 5-8, 2020 at the Hyatt Regency Seattle in Seattle, Washington. Volunteers are essential to the success of the event, and we are now

accepting volunteer applications on a rolling basis. First round of shift assignments will begin in late January 2020.

As a volunteer, you will receive a special discounted rate of $450 for the full conference pass (registration is required). Please come prepared as needed to work up to a 12-hour shift, including your food and beverage needs. Please note that The Big Bang Dinner on Thursday evening is not included in the volunteer pass rate but is available for an additional fee. Volunteer admission does not include travel, lodging, or incidental expenses, so please plan accordingly. Volunteers must complete the total commitment of twelve (12) hours, otherwise the volunteer will be charged the remaining full cost of the conference pass.

Priority is given to current members of the Emerging Professionals and/or full-time students. Diverse candidates are encouraged to apply.
