Development Internship
If you are driven to create content and conversations on Gender-Based Violence and Human Rights then SAHIYO is looking for you!
Sahiyo internships are currently a minimum commitment of 6 months for 10 hours per week. As the positions are (mostly) virtual, interns can be located anywhere in the world but must be comfortable with working independently and remotely.
Internships are unpaid (though a small stipend may be available). As Sahiyo continues to grow, we hope to be able to provide this opportunity as paid positions in the future for the right person. In the meantime, this internship is a great opportunity for someone to work with an internationally recognized organization, and learn how organizations develop from the ground up.
Responsibilities & Duties:
- Support Grants Coordinator as needed
- Conduct weekly funding source research
- Draft and edit grant proposals and budgets
- Maintain program and organizational budgets
- Solicit relationships with potential funders
- Assist with implementation of strategic development plan
- Create and implement fundraising campaigns
Requirements
- Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written
- Hardworking, driven, energetic, results-oriented and independent but able to keep in contact with team
- Eager to learn about the issue, with a focus on engaging with the community in a culturally appropriate and sensitive manner
- Able to prioritize, organize, manage time well, and deliver to agreed deadlines
- Experience with development and/or non-profit work a plus
