About White Ribbon Alliance UK

White Ribbon Alliance UK is an intersectional feminist charity working to end gender-based violence and advance gender equity in sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). We focus especially on marginalised and underrepresented communities.

Through research, advocacy, training, and systems change, we centre the voices of women, girls, and trans and non-binary people across the lifecycle of sexual and reproductive health. Our programmes are grounded in intersectional feminist values and led by lived experience.

About the Role

We are recruiting Campaign & Fundraising Volunteers to support the charity in achieving its fundraising goals for the annual The Big Give's  Women & Girls Match Fund. It is a national campaign to raise £20,000 to fight medical misogyny in gynaecological and perinatal care. All donations made through our campaign page will be matched up to the first £5,000 raised by The Big Give, and we would like to find corporate or individual donors who are willing to match donations as well, or make one-off donations of their own.

Our project team consists of experts in social media marketing, campaign content creation, graphic design, digital communications, and project administration. We now need additional volunteer to support donor outreach and fundraising efforts — helping us build relationships, increase visibility, and reach new supporters before and during the campaign week, or to run small fundraisers locally in your community.

You’ll join a small, supportive team and contribute in ways that suit your skills and capacity. Depending on your interests, tasks may include:

Donor Outreach & Fundraising

• Reaching out to individual, corporate, or high-value donors

• Helping us recruit and liaise with influencers who care about women's and girls' reproductive health

• Writing or editing outreach messages, talking points, and thank-yous

• Coordinating small peer-led fundraisers (e.g. bake sales, quiz nights, digital events)

• Helping us track responses, donations, and follow-ups

We’ll provide all materials, templates, and guidance — you’ll never be left to figure it out alone.

What You’ll Get From It

• A hands-on role in a nationally profiled fundraising campaign

• Experience in digital fundraising, donor relations, and campaigning

• Supervision and support from WRA UK staff and senior volunteers

• Flexible, remote volunteering around your availability

• Public credit and the option of a reference or LinkedIn recommendation

• Satisfaction in knowing your work directly supports trauma-informed care and SRHR justice

Who This Role Is For

We’re looking for people who are:

• Available to begin ASAP as the campaign preparation has begun so that we are ready for the week the fundraising event runts (8-15 October)

• Confident communicators and relationship builders

• Proactive, reliable, and responsive

• Passionate about equity in reproductive healthcare

• Able to work independently but keen to collaborate with a team

• Fundraising, stakeholder management, and sales experience —not mandatory, but nice to have.

• Motivation and willingness to help.

Diversity & Inclusion

We actively encourage applications from individuals with lived experience of the issues we campaign on, and from underrepresented communities, including (but not limited to) Black, Asian, disabled, chronically ill, LGBTQ+, and retired individuals.

Campus Cares

Campus Cares is building a movement to improve the mental well-being of Nigerian university students, where suicide is the second leading cause of death among young people and nearly one in five shows signs of anxiety or depression. Barriers like stigma, underfunded campus counseling, and economic hardship prevent most from seeking help.

Campus Cares tackles these challenges through a youth-centered model that combines peer-led workshops, free counseling, and digital outreach. Student “Mental Health Ambassadors” lead stigma-breaking sessions, while licensed therapists provide confidential drop-in counseling and tele-health support. Digital campaigns and resource toolkits extend impact to thousands more students. During exams, stress-management programs create safe spaces for coping and connection.

By integrating awareness, access, and advocacy, Campus Cares ensures no student suffers in silence—building a culture where mental wellness is a right, not a privilege, and driving systemic change aligned with SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being.

Eco-Activators™ | Waste Lens™

Waste Lens™ is an AI-native platform designed to solve the global waste crisis by automating behavior follow-through at the moment of disposal. Instead of relying on decades-old recycling education or post-disposal management, Waste Lens™ tackles the root cause: wrong disposal decisions that drive $44.2 trillion in global economic damage each year. Using Vision AI and agent-led orchestration, users snap a photo of their waste, the AI identifies it, and specialized agents handle follow-through—diverting materials into recycling, resale, or replacement pathways. This system extends landfill life, reduces tipping costs, cuts emissions, and unlocks revenue by fueling circular and commerce markets. Unlike recycling apps that depend on motivation, Waste Lens™ builds agentic-native, concierge-style experiences with personalized incentives, ensuring scale and adoption. Its B2G2C model allows cities to save on landfill costs while unlocking a captive user base, turning waste from a costly liability into a powerful economic engine for sustainable growth.

By securing funding, you’ll help accelerate the launch and scale of Waste Lens™ — an agentic-native, behavior automation platform designed to make diverting waste away from landfill into circular and commerce markets feel effortless.

What You’ll Do:

�� Scout Opportunities — Research and identify relevant grants and other non-dilutive funding avenues across federal, state, local, public, private, nonprofit, and foundation sources in cleantech, climate tech, circular economy, waste reduction, food waste, textiles, AI, and municipal sectors.

�� Build the Calendar — Develop and maintain a calendar of deadlines, requirements, and strategic priorities, organized by funding size, fit, and speed to access.

✍️ Write to Win — Draft compelling, story- and data-driven applications that highlights Waste Lens™’ unique value proposition, market opportunity, and impact potential.
