Summary

We are looking for a volunteer to coordinate our Communication and Marketing and help us build awareness about our work, in the Netherlands and abroad.

Detailed description

If you’re seeking an opportunity to play a part in the development of affordable education, women entrepreneurship and microloans in Liberia, we’d love to hear from you!


We are looking for a committed and passionate volunteer to coordinate our communication and marketing initiatives. The role will involve:


  • Reviewing our current communication policies and (social) media channels and refining them to ensure a clear communication policy and strategy for the organisation. This may mean that you create a new, more cohesive communication strategy for us.
  • Working with our website development volunteer (we are currently recruiting for this role) to rewrite all texts and update the photos on our website, ensuring clarity, consistency, and alignment with our mission and values.
  • Coordinating with our social media volunteers and newsletter writer to ensure cohesive messaging across all platforms.
  • Ensuring that we regularly publish regular news updates on our website.
  • Drafting our annual report and disseminating this across our various channels.
  • Helping to expand our reach and impact and attract new supporters.
  • It would be fantastic - but not a requirement - if you were also interested in helping to remotely build the communication & marketing capacity of our team member in Liberia.


Our ideal candidate will have several years of work experience and a background in communication or marketing, strong communication skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work collaboratively in an international, remote environment.


You'll be proactive with a strong sense of initiative and passionate about supporting people in countries where opportunities are few and challenges are many.


Ideally, you'll be fluent in both English and Dutch, though we do also have volunteers who only speak English.


This is a part-time volunteer position with flexible hours. We'd prefer it if you could offer a 6-month minimum commitment.

  

Your outreach will help to not only help bring in support for transformative projects in Liberia, but also help to build a community of people in the Netherlands, Liberia and (currently) two other countries – an immensely rewarding experience.


You’ll also gain insight into the workings of a small-scale NGO and the role of communications and marketing in our work and be a part of our exciting core team.


Interested? We look forward to hearing from you!

About Mineke Foundation

Mineke Foundation works in Liberia. Our goal is to help people - especially young people and women - become economically self-reliant. We focus on education and entrepreneurship. We have three projects:

== The Damiefa School is a social enterprise that provides affordable private education from kindergarten through eighth grade. The national Liberian curriculum is supplemented with an Art education program developed by Dutch teachers and a Reading comprehension program developed by American teachers for Liberia. It is our ambition to grow the school into a fully-fledged secondary school. The school is currently being renovated.

== Our Women's Club is a social education program of monthly workshops & meetings for women. The workshops cover topics such as (reproductive) health, women's rights, leadership and sexual violence. The training courses are aimed at entrepreneurship, supplemented with micro loans. In a few years we hope to add adult education as well.

== The Resource Center is a multifunctional space with a small library/computer room with two user groups. On the one hand these are the children of the Damiefa School, on the other hand these are young people between 15 and 35 years old. For them, Mineke Foundation offers – both itself and in collaboration with partners – a series of training programs aimed at improving their position on the labor market. The training includes soft skills, entrepreneurship and digital skills.

Mineke Foundation is an award-winning foundation known for its quality and professionalism. We are an accredited local Liberian NGO, vocational school and private (primary) school.

A small, committed and motivated local team carries out our projects in Liberia. The Dutch foundation consists of international volunteers and supports our team in Liberia, among other things with fundraising, social media & communication and knowledge transfer. There is regular contact between the teams.

Our fun and enthusiastic volunteers will make you feel at home in no time! We all work from home and have regular Zoom calls, also with our team in Liberia. Volunteers living in the Netherlands usually meet twice a year. Good to know: we speak both Dutch and English, but speak English during calls & meetings.

Mineke Foundation was founded in 2009 by Tonia Dabwe to build on the work her parents started in Liberia in the late 1960s. The foundation is named after Tonia's Dutch mother who has been missing since the civil war in Liberia.
