Volunteer for an organisation empowering Tanzanian women and youth through sustainable farming ��

HERVEG.05
We help women and youth farmers grow nutritious food, raise poultry, and increase income sustainably.

HERVEG.05 addresses the critical issues of malnutrition, food insecurity, and poverty in Tanzania, which ranks among the top 15 countries globally for child stunting. Smallholder farmers, who produce the majority of the country's food, frequently lack the training and tools necessary to overcome poor soil fertility and climate-driven challenges. This creates a devastating cycle of low productivity and worsening hunger that permanently affects the development of millions of children.

The solution is a practical, climate-smart pathway designed for rural realities. HERVEG.05 utilizes a "Mobile layaway" system allowing farmers to purchase seeds and poultry inputs incrementally via phone. Their model includes hands-on training and last-mile delivery of inputs directly to remote village groups. By providing "Nutri-Reach Bundles"—which combine poultry, biofortified maize, and vegetables—the startup creates a circular economy. Poultry manure improves soil, biofortified crops fight malnutrition, and improved storage reduces waste. This integrated system builds resilience against climate change while simultaneously boosting family income and health.

Communication & Storytelling Officer

If you love writing, experimenting, and telling stories that actually mean something, keep reading.

We’re looking for a Communication & Storytelling Officer to manage our LinkedIn and Instagram and bring our work to life. You’ll turn real moments from women and youth farmers, field work, and impact into content people want to stop and read.
This role is for someone who:

• Loves writing clear, human, modern content (no corporate boring stuff).
• Enjoys trying new formats, angles, and ideas, then learning what works.
• Knows how to tell a story, not just post updates.
• Can run our LinkedIn & Instagram with consistency and creativity.
• Truly aligns with our work, food systems, nutrition, climate-smart farming, and real impact for rural communities.

You should care about why we exist, not just what we post. If our mission excites you, your writing will show it. If you believe stories can change how people see farmers, food, and climate, this is your space.

Short. Real. Creative. Impact-driven.

The Trustee role

This role involves more than just attending meetings.  We are responsible for:

Volunteer for a community helping nonprofits grow ��

The Nonprofit Hive is a free platform for changemakers to create and cultivate their social impact community.

Nonprofit work is challenging, full of isolation and a lack of resources. We are working to create a community for nonprofit professionals to have the opportunity to network, make connections, share resources and create collaborations. We place changemakers in 1-1 video chats ("Hive Chats") weekly based on a unique matching algorithm that facilitates conversation.

We are looking for passionate individuals who want to be part of a worldwide movement to engage nonprofit professionals, create resources, be involved in influencer and ambassador marketing and feel like they are impacting the world at large. We are growing quickly and working towards profitability so our biggest challenges right now are in social media, video production, marketing and communications.

PR & Partnerships Support (Social Impact Focus)

As our work gains traction globally, we’re looking for support amplifying our story in the right rooms.
This role focuses on identifying aligned media, podcasts, newsletters, events, and partnership opportunities where The Nonprofit Hive and Community Hives could add value. You might help draft pitch angles, refine key messages, or support outreach to values-aligned organizations, funders, or ecosystem builders.
This is not high-volume PR—it’s thoughtful, targeted relationship-building with people and platforms that care about nonprofit sustainability, community, and collaboration.
Ideal for someone with PR, partnerships, or ecosystem-building experience who wants to apply those skills in a purpose-driven, human way.
