Fundraising Internship - Ukraine Response at ONETrack International (Remote)
ONETrack is a Boston-based US nonprofit that practices alternative orphan-care solutions around the world, but we are also a registered charity in the state of Greece. Currently Greece is home to over 25,000 refugees who have fled their homes in Ukraine during the conflict… and almost all are vulnerable families consisting of women, children, and the elderly. Most are experiencing trauma, loss, family separation, and the economic stress of relocating to a strange country. Since men aged 18-60 must stay in Ukraine to defend the country, most of the families arriving are single mothers with children. ONETrack in Greece and our partners are supporting Ukrainian refugees by providing accommodations for mothers and children, provisions of food and school needs and the psychosocial support required from trauma experienced during the invasion. Our goal is to keep families together, keep children out of institutional care, and contribute to their education and health needs. We are looking for interns for either the Fall or Spring semesters to help raise additional funding for this project.
These internship opportunities will provide qualified applicants with substantial experience in nonprofit fundraising and development through events planning, donor cultivation, solicitation strategizing, and a fundamental knowledge of Nonprofit Management and program implementation and expansion. Each intern will be encouraged to take a leadership role in spearheading their own fundraising campaigns within the objectives of the development department, depending on one's experience and hours of availability.

Applicants should be pursuing a Bachelor or Masters Degree in a relevant field (Marketing, Government, Public Policy, etc) or recent graduates, who possess excellent communication skills, and are qualified to represent the organization. Should be open-minded, enthusiastic, creative, and adaptable.
