Join our founding team! We’re seeking remote, flexible volunteers & board members (social media, fundraising, ops, outreach) to champion workplace pyschological health, prevent burnout, and fund Alberta OHS students—building a legacy that lasts.
We’re looking for a few wonderful humans to help build something that lasts.
The Aaron Daniel Olfert Memorial Scholarship Society is officially building our founding team—and we’re looking for heart-led, purpose-driven professionals and creatives to join us in remote, flexible volunteer & board roles.
Why We Exist: Aaron Olfert built his career in Occupational Health and Safety because he naturally looked out for others. Yet at age 46, he passed away in his sleep from heart failure—the result of putting his job before his health.
We exist to bridge the gap between workplace safety and human survival. Beyond funding post-secondary OHS education in Alberta, our mission is to dismantle toxic hustle culture, treat grief and psychological health as real workplace priorities, and remind people that your health is more important than your job, your title, or your output.
As we launch, we want collaborators who care deeply about mental health, burnout prevention, and supporting others—and who want to build their own meaningful legacy alongside Aaron’s.
Who We’re Looking For (Remote & Flexible):
Creative & Social Media Support (Canva / LinkedIn / Instagram): Help shape our digital presence, lay out monthly Safety Moments for workplace toolbox talks, and share stories that spark real conversations.
Fundraising & Donor Relations Lead (Board or Committee): Help us cultivate corporate partners, connect with values-aligned donors, and build the foundation for a perpetual endowment.
Operations & Admin Coordinator: Keep our wheels turning behind the scenes—helping organize school outreach lists, applicant tracking, and event logistics.
Student & Educational Liaison (Board): Build relationships with Alberta OHS programs (NAIT, SAIT, U of C, U of A) and support the next generation of safety leaders.
What It Looks Like:
100% Remote & Flexible: Designed for real humans with full lives—we practice the anti-burnout culture we preach.
Cadence: Monthly team meetings (plus occasional check-ins as we get acquainted or during launch sprints)
Impact: Ground-floor involvement in a grassroots society built to exist for decades.
