Volunteer Program - help us cast our net to attract quality volunteers
ShelterBox New Zealand Charitable Trust
Estimated Time: 2 - 4 Hours Over 3 - 6 Weeks
We're a small group of volunteer Trustees representing ShelterBox to New Zealanders. We raise awareness and funds to contribute to disaster relief in parts of the world where help is too often not forthcoming. Our goal is to ensure no-one is without shelter following disaster. We have built an excellent set of resources for people to help us by (1) Telling the ShelterBox story in community engagements (schools, clubs, events ...) (2) Helping members of the public to fundraise on our behalf, (3) Lending their skills to help us with internal projects, administration and tasks. We now seek support to take this project to the people. We're hoping to find someone super-organised, communications and engagement-savvy with rock solid project management skills. The task is to help us develop and launch an engagement plan as we seek to identify, engage, onboard and manage a cohort of volunteers to help with direct public engagement and some inhouse activity from time-to-time.

> work with us to design the launch and subsequent engagement steps and potentially stay on the guide the launch to conclusion (6 - 10 hours)
