Summary
We are looking for a volunteer to create an attractive new website for us that showcases our work.Detailed description
If you’re seeking an opportunity to play a role in supporting 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 create an attractive new website for us. The role will involve:
- Reviewing an existing proposed design for the new website and editing as needed. We're also open to a completely new design!
- Working with our communication & marketing coordinator (we are currently recruiting for this role) and our board chair to build the new site. Our website has two versions: English and Dutch
- Working with our communication & marketing coordinator to add new texts and photos, ensuring that SEO best practices are followed to improve our online visibility/findability.
- It would be fantastic - but not a requirement - if you were also willing to maintain the new website after it is done, specifically, to ensure regular security/technical updates.
Our ideal candidate will have several years of experience developing and building websites, 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.
Your work will help bring in support for transformative projects in Liberia, and also help build a community of people in the Netherlands, Liberia and (currently) two other countries – an immensely rewarding experience.
Interested? We look forward to hearing from you!
What we will provide to volunteers
🤝 Extra supportAbout 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.
