�� Calling Social Impact Influencers – Help Us Change How The UK Gives ��

We’re building something different.

Unify Giving allows donors to directly support individuals experiencing homelessness, domestic violence, and financial crisis — with full transparency, dignity, and trust. 100% of donations go straight to the person in need.

But to reach more people, we need voices. Real voices.

That’s why we’re building our Social Impact Influencer Squad — a network of mission-driven creators and storytellers who want to use their platforms to help us grow, reach new donors, and expand our recipient base across the UK.

✅ Who we’re looking for:

• Individuals with 5k+ engaged followers (Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube etc.)

• Passionate about social impact, homelessness, domestic violence support, or financial inclusion

• Want to use your voice to help real people — directly

✅ What you’ll do:

• Help share our mission with your community

• Highlight stories of individuals we support (all fully anonymised and approved)

• Be part of a new model for giving — one that puts dignity and transparency first

✅ Why it matters:

Every share helps us expand, onboard more charity partners, and reach individuals who urgently need support. This isn’t just charity — it’s a whole new infrastructure for giving.

If this sounds like you, we’d love to chat ��

A Trustee will bring an individual area of expertise to benefit our organisation. Among the many skills they may have relate to business development, financial management; charity governance, staff development, performance management, local government, disability service development and adult social care. The Trustees work closely with the Executive Management Team (EMT) on the strategic direction of the business. They coordinate and attend quarterly board meetings, through which they review the work of the charity and provide advice, support and focus attention onto the areas that the EMT needs to consider and prepare for, to continuously improve what we do and respond to the changing environment in which Bethphage operates. Bethphage is a values-based charitable business, supporting some of the most vulnerable people in the community. The charity also needs to make a modest financial surplus to remain viable. The role of a Trustee is to be a critical friend to the management team, lending expertise and experience to help guide the organisation in achieving its aims and sometimes competing objectives. Some of our board members have been a part of Bethphage for many years, you will be joining a supportive, friendly, and collegiate team that will help you develop and grow your role as a Trustee. Trustees generally thoroughly enjoy the role and find that it is a very rewarding experience. The Trustees work on a voluntary capacity for the benefit of the charity, this usually equates to one day per month. All Trustees are requested to undergo a DBS check (Disclosure & Barring service). Currently, we are particularly interested in hearing from people with financial and/or legal experience and expertise.

This includes mentorship, workshops, and fundraising tools that empower students to turn their concepts into reality.
