Volunteer Committees

SMC of SLC is a community-based organization. It wouldn’t exist without the engagement and support of those who live along the Wasatch Front who are working in and interested in social media.

Because SMC of SLC is open to all and free of charge, the local organization relies heavily on volunteer contributions, in-kind donations and sponsorships.
