Opportunities From: City of Bloomington Volunteer Network

Volunteer: Contributing Writer: Share banned stories. Including yours.

Help My Flying University tell the stories that are being banned, buried, forgotten, and distorted.

My Flying University (MFU) is a Bloomington-based nonprofit dedicated to helping learners make sense of the world through critical thinking, media literacy, and historical awareness. We believe that when knowledge is under attack, learning itself becomes an act of resistance.

We’re looking for writers, journalists, storytellers, subject matter experts, and people with relevant lived experiences to contribute articles for any of our four core projects:

Read Between the Headlines, where we look past the surface and into the forces currently shaping our society

Explore Silenced Stories: where we uncover the people and movements that history pushed to the margins

The War on Education, where we connect the pressure on schools to the larger struggle for democracy

Connect With Your Community, where we gather the stories, events, and resources that shape life in Bloomington and throughout Indiana

Write in any style: articles, academic papers, personal essays, opinion pieces, interviews, or collaborative deep dives. Add videos, podcasts, research, or interactive media if you like. Our team can help you with anything you don't already know how to do.

This is an ongoing, flexible opportunity for anyone who see writing as a tool for connection and resistance.

You can sign up here, or, if you prefer to stay off the radar, you can complete a volunteer application on our website, www.myflyinguniversity.org. Please email info@myflyinguniversity.org if you have any questions or need any assistance.

Volunteer: Flying Faculty: Build Lessons That Push Back

My Flying University needs your help to create online lessons that unpack current events and uncover the stories history tried to erase.

My Flying University (MFU) is a Bloomington-based nonprofit dedicated to helping learners make sense of the world through critical thinking, media literacy, and historical awareness. We believe that when knowledge is under attack, learning itself becomes an act of resistance.

We’re looking for educators, instructional designers, subject matter experts, and those with relevant lived experiences to help us build digital lessons in WordPress for three of our core projects:

Read Between the Headlines, where we analyze current events from multiple perspectives to reveal the deeper social, political, and psychological forces shaping our world

Explore Silenced Stories, which spotlights people and movements whose voices and victories were erased or distorted by history

The War on Education, which focuses on the latest attacks, gag orders, and other news about K-12 and higher education

Connect With Your Community, which focuses on the history and current issues of Bloomington, IN, and the state of Indiana as a whole

No prior e-learning experience is required. If you’re comfortable with technology (or willing to learn) we’ll show you how to build engaging lessons using the templates and tools we provide. We’ll help you grow your digital skills while working alongside others who care deeply about education and justice.

This is an ongoing, flexible, remote volunteer opportunity that is suitable for anyone who wants to help make truth, context, and history accessible to all… and for those who carry the spirit of Bloomington’s creative, curious, and activist heart wherever they are.  

You can sign up here, or, if you prefer to remain anonymous, you can complete a volunteer application on our website, www.myflyinguniversity.org. Please email info@myflyinguniversity.org if you have any questions or need any assistance.
