A few years ago, I volunteered for the Migraine World Summit, and I’ve never looked back.
During a time when I was just beginning to climb out of a decade long chronic migraine cellar, I saw a call for volunteers on a migraine website I follow. At the time, I was unemployed and in the middle of an unplanned career change. I figured volunteering would give me some much-needed experience to help me find a job in my new career field. Looking back on that time, I had no idea how valuable this experience would be for me.
Yes, I now have some career-related experience under my belt, but I also have so much more than that. At Migraine World Summit, I am embraced by those who not only understand, believe, and support my chronic migraine journey but also value me for my strengths. On top of all that, I learned much more about migraine than I ever thought possible, and I continue to learn. Add in the feel-good vibes from helping get important information to other people with migraine, and it is a win-win situation.
In preparation for the 2020 summit, the Migraine World Summit is looking for volunteers in multiple roles including:
- Social Media Manager
- Community Support Ambassador
- Content Editor
- Copywriter
- Website Developer
- Graphic Designer
- Partnership Manager
- Live Event Planner
- Video Editor
- Executive Assistant
If you are interested, just fill out a short application form before November 1st, 2019. You can also visit the Join Our Team tab on the Migraine World Summit web page for more information.
And my sudden onset of “migraines” proved to be strokes in the basal ganglia and cerebellum. Four over just ten months, so one need to pay attention to bodily objections.

I have never had to endure regular migraine but from what the image you choose looks like it must feel like hell.
