We are looking for an experienced person to assist Pursue, a small charity serving communities in rural Kenya, with researching funding opportunities and completing grant applications.
This role will entail:
- Researching funding opportunities and creating a database of suitable grants, trusts and foundations that Pursue is eligible to apply to.
- Chairing the Grant meetings.
- Creating a schedule which identifies key dates and deadlines throughout the year for funding applications.
- Drafting grant applications, with assistance from in-country implementation staff who know the details of the work in Kenya well.
- Experience in securing grants for charities
- Knowledge of the fundraising sector
- Able to design a tracking tool to ensure funding opportunities and deadlines are not missed
- An interest in international development
We are a small charity and our current volunteer board members simply don't have the time or expertise to ensure that we don't miss out on valuable funding opportunities. Without these much needed funds, the work of the charity cannot grow and we will miss out on the opportunity to serve more individuals and communities in Kenya. Your assistance to help us secure grants will have a massive impact on the communities that we serve in rural Kenya.
