Volunteer Professionals for Medical Advancement
VPMA Chapters (Continued)
to work with the non-medical volunteer.

VPMA contacts various organizations, personally contacts potential members, and otherwise locates volunteers in a local area. Once a contact with one or more interested parties is established and interest is indicated, a video describing past activities can be provided to stimulate volunteers. A group of persons can then provide the following information to request consideration for the formation of a new VPMA Chapter.

* Identify the group of retirees and your geographical location
* Identify the group leader or contact person including name, address, telephone number, email address, and fax number.
* List the retired engineers, scientists or organization interested in forming the proposed VPMA team (minimum of 3 persons with 20 years or more experience). Include the professional background: i.e. electrical engineer, computer specialist, chemist, physicist, mathematician, etc. Note: The Pasadena VPMA Chapter started with only 3 members all supporting medical tasks under control of hospital doctors.
* List any associated technology company: i.e., your ex-employer or other organization. Note any possible support or cooperation that might be provided. (Support from organizations is desirable but not required.)
