Volunteer: Digital Club Host: Create Spaces for Learning, Play, and ResistanceHelp My Flying University launch digital clubs that bring people together to learn, create, and stay grounded during difficult times. My Flying University (MFU) is a Bloomington-based nonprofit creating spaces for learning, connection, and resistance through education. As knowledge, history, and truth come under increasing attack, MFU is building community-centered alternatives where people can learn together, stay grounded, and support one another. We’re currently seeking volunteers to host, co-host, or help support a new set of digital clubs focused on shared learning, creative expression, critical thinking, and community connection. These clubs are designed to help participants engage with banned ideas, develop their voices, practice responding to disinformation, explore history through play, and sustain one another while paying attention to the world. The Underground Book Club is a reading group focused on banned and challenged books, exploring why certain stories are considered dangerous and are pushed out of sight.Finding Your Voice is a digital creative club focused on storytelling as a tool for advocacy and social change. Each week introduces a new storytelling approach, from writing and visual art to sound, media, and movement. The Unofficial Curriculum is a tabletop roleplaying campaign about clandestine education, shared risk, and quiet defiance under authoritarian rule. Inspired by the flying universities of Poland, the game focuses on collaboration rather than conquest.The Disinformation Clinic is a hands-on action group where participants diagnose misleading claims, develop effective responses, and take those strategies into real conversations and public spaces.The Crafting and Catastrophizing Club is a low-pressure digital hangout where people work on crafts or quiet creative projects while talking about the state of things. Bring knitting, drawing, collage, embroidery, puzzles, or anything that keeps your hands busy. Conversation is optional, dark humor is welcome, and no one is expected to fix anything.Volunteers may help facilitate discussions or activities, co-host sessions, support logistics or moderation, or help create a welcoming and thoughtful environment for participants. Roles are flexible and can be shared, and MFU provides guidance, structure, and support for all club facilitators. 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.

Volunteer: Flying Faculty: Build Lessons That Push BackMy 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.
