Council information

What is a council member?

Council members are elected or appointed officials who serve on a local governing body, such as a city, town, or municipal council. Their main responsibilities include representing the interests of their constituents, making decisions on local policies, budgets, and regulations, and overseeing the delivery of public services. Council members often participate in meetings, work with community stakeholders, and help shape the strategic direction of their locality. They play a key role in ensuring transparency and accountability in local government. Their actions directly impact the quality of life for residents in their communities.

What skills and qualifications are needed to thrive as a city council member?

To thrive as a City Council Member, you need a solid understanding of public policy, local government procedures, and community issues, often supported by relevant education or prior civic engagement. Familiarity with municipal management systems, legislative research tools, and budgeting software is valuable. Strong leadership, public speaking, and consensus-building skills help Council Members effectively represent constituents and collaborate with stakeholders. These capabilities are crucial for making informed decisions, enacting effective policies, and building public trust in local governance.

What are common challenges faced by council members, and how can new members prepare to address them?

Council members often navigate balancing diverse community interests, managing limited resources, and making decisions that impact a wide range of stakeholders. New members can prepare by familiarizing themselves with local policies, attending public meetings, and actively engaging with constituents to understand their concerns. Building strong relationships with fellow council members and municipal staff also helps in fostering collaboration and making informed decisions. Ongoing professional development and staying informed about municipal governance best practices are valuable for overcoming common challenges in the role.

What is the difference between Council vs Committee?

AspectCouncilCommittee
CredentialsVaries; often includes community or industry experienceOften requires specific expertise or stakeholder representation
Work EnvironmentFormal, strategic, policy-focusedOperational, project-specific, task-oriented
Employer & Industry UsageGovernment, non-profits, industry bodiesOrganizations, corporations, government agencies
Search & Comparison IntentUnderstanding governance roles, decision-makingProject management, task delegation

While both Councils and Committees involve group decision-making, Councils typically focus on strategic governance and policy, whereas Committees handle specific projects or operational tasks. Councils often have broader authority and longer-term responsibilities, while Committees are more task-specific and operational.

How to become a council member?

To become a council member, candidates typically need to meet age and residency requirements, gather signatures to qualify for the ballot, and run in local elections. Prior experience in community service or local government can be beneficial, and candidates often need to campaign and engage with voters during the election cycle.

Adventure Ted Partnerships & Events Council Intern -- Community Engagement & Events Internship

Childhood Cancer Society

Valdosta, GA

$12 - $16.25/hr

Internship

Re-posted 6 days ago

Job description

Childhood Cancer Society (CCS) is a national 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to supporting families battling pediatric cancer both financially and emotionally. Through fundraising events, wish-grant experiences, and strategic partnerships, CCS delivers meaningful, life-changing moments to children and families when they need it most, led by our official spokes-bear, Adventure Ted.

We are currently preparing for two major initiatives:

  • A high-level charity golf outing at Trump National Golf Club

  • An annual fundraising dinner event with the Mayor of Saddle River, NJ

Role Overview

We are assembling a select group of individuals to join the Adventure Ted Partnerships & Events Council, a performance-driven team responsible for driving outreach, partnerships, and community engagement tied to CCS’s flagship events.

Members of this council will work directly with the Founder and Chief Media Officer, contributing to real-time outreach efforts, sponsor development, and event execution.

This is not a traditional internship. This is a hands-on, execution-focused role centered on ownership, communication, and results.

Core Responsibilities

Outreach & Partnerships (Primary Focus)

  • Lead outreach via phone, email, and in-person communication to:

  • Local businesses and brands for sponsorships

  • Restaurants, venues, and service providers for auction items and collaborations

  • Build and maintain relationships through consistent follow-up

  • Represent CCS professionally across all external communications

Event Execution (Golf Outing + Fundraising Dinner)

  • Support outreach and coordination tied to CCS’s flagship events

  • Assist in securing sponsor participation and partner involvement

  • Help manage confirmations, communication, and relationship tracking

Coordination & Collaboration

  • Work alongside Communications and Creative teams to align outreach with event strategy

  • Contribute ideas for new partnerships and engagement opportunities

  • Participate in structured team execution sessions and planning discussions

What Makes This Different

  • Direct collaboration with the Founder and executive leadership

  • Exposure to high-level events, sponsors, and real-world partnerships

  • Real responsibility and ownership, not task-based assignments

  • A selective, performance-based environment focused on execution

  • Opportunity to earn elevated roles based on results

Growth & Advancement Opportunities

Top-performing interns may be invited to continue beyond the initial term as Associates within the organization.

Select individuals may also be considered for the Adventure Ted Brand Ambassador program, a paid, performance-based opportunity tied to revenue-generating initiatives and partnerships.

Advancement is based on execution, consistency, and demonstrated ability to contribute meaningfully to the organization’s growth.

Internship Eligibility

This role is eligible for internship credit in Communications, Social Media, Marketing, and Media-related programs, depending on your school’s requirements. We are happy to work with accepted candidates to complete any necessary documentation.

Ideal Candidate

  • Confident communicator, comfortable with outreach and relationship-building

  • Self-starter who takes initiative and follows through

  • Interested in partnerships, business development, social media, or event strategy

  • Motivated by ownership and real-world experience

  • Passionate about contributing to meaningful, mission-driven work

Structure & Expectations

  • Approximately 15 to 20 hours per week

  • Mandatory weekly meetings:

  • Mondays and Thursdays, 8:30 PM to 9:30 PM EST

  • Includes:

    • C-suite alignment meeting (priorities and direction)

    • Execution session (live work and output)

  • All team members are expected to submit structured updates in advance via Discord

  • This is a performance-based role, continued participation is tied to consistency and execution
