Become a Variety VIP

Volunteer as a VIP at the Variety Telethon

Very Interested Persons, or Variety VIPs as we call them, are volunteers who work miracles before, during and after Telethon by raising dollars for Variety. These individuals are the backbone of our Telethon fundraising efforts and consistently generate more than $1 million annually by collecting pledges both large and small.

 

As a Variety VIP you will:

  • Advocate on behalf of Variety in the community
  • Have access to a fantastic network of caring individuals that are changing lives
  • Reach out and gain financial commitment from your peers
  • Serve on a team of committed peers who are equally focused on a successful fundraising effort

Put Together a Phone Panel

Raise money as a group or company for the variety telethon

In a traditional year, companies and organizations support the Telethon by providing volunteers for the phones on air for a specific time, generally one to one and a half hours. Even though we are not able to host our Telethon in-person with phone panels on air, we are still inviting phone panels to raise dollars for the children of Iowa, who are facing greater needs than ever before.

 

As a phone panel volunteer, you will:

  • Advocate on behalf of Variety in the community
  • Reach out and gain financial commitment from your peers
  • Serve on a team of committed peers who are equally focused on a successful fundraising effort
