There's never been a better to get involved with MASFAA!

Whether you’re looking to share your experience, develop new skills, connect with colleagues, or simply give back to the profession, volunteering with MASFAA is a great way to make a difference.

Our volunteers are at the heart of what makes MASFAA a strong and connected professional association. Serving on a committee or helping with a special project can provide opportunities to:

Build meaningful connections with colleagues across the region
Share your knowledge and experience while learning from others
Develop leadership and teamwork skills
Find a mentor or become one for someone else
Support the growth of the financial aid profession
Make a difference in the MASFAA community

Not sure where you might fit? Learn more about our volunteer opportunities, commitments, and areas of involvement. If you have questions or want to learn more about a particular opportunity, reach out to the chair(s) listed in the descriptions.

You don’t have to have years of experience or a particular title to get involved. There’s a place for everyone in MASFAA, and you may be surprised by what you gain along the way.

Thank you for investing your time, talent, and energy in MASFAA. Our association—and our profession—are stronger because of you!
