Notice where the phrase sounds natural.

I got involved in organising the charity event at work.

At university, I got involved in a student film club, and that gave me the confidence to work with people I didn’t know.

Fix the pattern

One small grammar move makes it sound right.

Not: I involved in organising the charity event.

Say: I got involved in organising the charity event.

'Involve' needs 'get' or 'be' here: you 'get involved in' something; 'I involved in' is wrong.
