Message from the Chair of Trustees
The Trustees represent different backgrounds and experiences, but what pulls us together is a
commitment to SEED’s work on the ground in Madagascar. Several of us have been to Madagascar
and have either volunteered or worked with SEED, so we have seen first-hand how important our

extraordinary country with exceptional biodiversity but has severely lacking infrastructure and a
high level of anthropogenic threats due to extreme poverty and considerable dependence on
natural resources.
We are looking forward to welcoming a new Chair of our Board of Trustees to join the amazing
team of dedicated staff and volunteers who are delivering sustainable development, conservation
and community work through a range of projects based on local needs. The current Chair has been

fresh perspective is timely and will ensure we approach the next phase of our growth and
development with new ideas. You will be assured of a warm and supportive welcome with the
benefit of a team containing years of experience, combined with new members who bring global
expertise in their field.

Lead Me Back Foundation addresses the barriers to quality education through an integrated, child-centered approach that responds to the realities children face both inside and outside the classroom.
Increasing household poverty in Zambia continues to push children out of school. For many, attending class does not guarantee learning; classroom hunger, poor access to basic health services, and climate shocks like droughts and floods create a cycle of vulnerability. Without basic supplies, nutrition, or health support, children are often too unwell or unprepared to engage meaningfully in their education.
Lead Me Back Foundation stabilizes the learning environment by addressing education, nutrition, and health as interconnected needs:
-
Guardian for A Year: We provide essential school supplies—including uniforms, shoes, and learning materials—to help children attend school with dignity.
-
Tummy2Class: Our school feeding program tackles classroom hunger, ensuring children have the nutrition they need to concentrate and succeed.
-
Ubumi Care Clinics: We strengthen access to basic health services through screenings and health education, reducing absenteeism caused by untreated illness.
By removing these practical barriers, we ensure that the most vulnerable students are better positioned to stay in school and build a brighter future.
We are looking for passionate Resource Mobilizers to help us lead one of the most important fundraising campaigns in our journey.
We have been selected to participate in the New Africa Fund Campaign 2026. We have 30 days to raise USD 5,000 and every dollar raised will be matched. This means your effort can unlock USD 10,000 for the children in our education, nutrition, and health programmes.
Behind every dollar raised is a child who stays in school because they received learning materials. A child who concentrates in class because they had a nutritious meal. A child who avoids preventable illness because of early health screening. Your role will be to help make those outcomes possible.
You will mobilize your networks, initiate conversations with potential donors, share impact stories, and help us build momentum around the campaign. You will not simply ask for money. You will advocate for access, equity, and opportunity for children who are often overlooked.
This role is ideal for someone who understands that fundraising is leadership. It is influence. It is the ability to translate compassion into tangible support. By volunteering in this role, you help turn a 30 day campaign into long term impact.
When resources are mobilized strategically, children are not just supported. They are given a fair chance to thrive.
Minimum Hours per Week:
2-3 hours per week
Duration:
