Estimated Time: 2 - 5 Hours Over 1 - 12 Months

We are a registered charity (CC57037) and we are incorporated as a Charitable Trust. We need someone with grants and funding experience who can source grants, apply for them, and get them over the bloody line for us! We know it's a specific skillset, and we need your expertise.

Working location

Your bubble.

Proposed project steps with time estimates

We have already compiled many of the necessary documents (bank account proof, certificate of incorporation, testimonials, budget, etc.) We need someone to find funds, start recording dates and adding them to a calendar, to complete the applications and follow-up with the funders.

Our three pillars: Conversation, Education and Access, are more relevant now than ever. Periods don't stop in a pandemic, not for frontline workers, nor for the growing list of vulnerable.

We're looking for support through this new Covid life, as we move our support to more smaller projects, and will take as many hours as you can give us.

We need someone to start as soon as possible:
- Initial email contact
- Phone chat
- Zoom call to talk through options
- Start applying!
