Administration volunteers volunteer roles
Description
Commitment: 2 hours per week for 16 weeks
Dates: Third week of January 2026 – Third week of May 2026
Location: Remote (online)
Victory Afghanistan is a Chicago-registered, women-led 501(c)(3) educational charity supporting over 800 Afghan girls and women through free online English and mentoring programmes. Our students, aged 11 to 40, have been barred from formal education since 2021 under the current political regime. Despite this, they continue to study online each week with courage, determination, and hope for the future.
We are now recruiting Conversational English Partners for our sixth semester beginning in January 2026.
Role Description
Conversational Partners meet with small groups of Afghan girls who are already fluent or near-fluent in English and simply wish to practise speaking and listening in a friendly, supportive environment.
- Each session lasts one hour, twice a week, for 16 weeks.
- There is no set curriculum, but we can help you plan interesting discussion topics or theme-based sessions if you prefer structure.
- Students may also suggest their own weekly topics.
- The focus is on confidence, connection, and conversation.
Who We’re Looking For
Ideal volunteers will have:
- Clear spoken English and strong communication skills
- Empathy, patience, and sensitivity to cultural differences
- A genuine interest in helping others learn and grow
- Reliability and commitment to attend sessions consistently
You do not need teaching experience, just an open mind and a willingness to engage in meaningful conversation with remarkable young women.
About Victory Afghanistan
Victory Afghanistan is a Chicago-registered nonprofit dedicated to providing education and mentorship to Afghan girls and young women who have been banned from attending school. We currently run six levels of English classes and a Mentorship Programme that includes three career pathways:
1. Online Higher Education – Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees through remote universities.
2. Offline Higher Education – Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees via scholarships and sponsorships abroad.
3. Online Work & Internships – Virtual career and internship opportunities.
About the Role
We’re now looking for a new Online Pathway Manager to oversee and expand the Online Higher Education stream. You’ll step into an existing structure — our previous manager will fully brief you — so you won’t be starting from zero.
Your mission will be to help identify and secure online learning opportunities for our mentees who cannot leave Afghanistan. This could include building relationships with universities in the US or Europe, sourcing scholarships or sponsorships, and exploring donated course placements.
You’ll work closely with three Project Coordinators (who are also students in our academy), guiding and mentoring them as they assist you.
What We’re Looking For
• Strong initiative and leadership – someone who can drive things forward independently.
• Confident communicator with good public relations skills.
• Experience in higher education, partnerships, or international development is ideal.
• Based in the United Kingdom or United States (for time-zone alignment).
• Able to commit around 6 hours per week and attend weekly team meetings.
• Ideally available until September 2026 (the end of the next academic year).
You’ll report directly to the Operations Manager and work with a small, passionate, and global team making a real impact in girls’ lives.
