Join Our Mission to Save Animals in Cambodia – Gain Proven Fundraising Experience!
AOOW is the only vegan animal sanctuary in Cambodia working towards animal rights!
We need someone like you to grow our team and protect our rescued animals by growing our supporter base in order for us to expand our care and mission.
Do you have an education or experience in social media, along with a passion for animals and a knack for digital storytelling? Animals of Our World Sanctuary, a dynamic animal rescue in Cambodia, is seeking creative Remote Volunteer Social Media Strategists to amplify our voice globally. Partner with our Head Fundraiser, Founder, and core team to craft compelling content that rescues pigs, dogs, chickens, and cows – while building your portfolio with real nonprofit impact.
Operating our House of Strays Sanctuary in Cambodia presents unique hurdles that make your expertise vital. Challenges we face involve extreme weather, supply chain disruptions, and high veterinary costs for our rescues. Economic pressures mean every share and follower counts double, fueling emergency care, habitat improvements, and expansion—your strategies will directly overcome these barriers to amplify our lifesaving work.
What You’ll Do:
• Design and schedule engaging posts, stories, and reels across Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and more to grow our vegan/animal-loving audience while teaching us your proven strategies and how to keep up with rapidly evolving platform algorithms.
• Develop strategies for viral campaigns, hashtags, and collaborations to boost awareness and donations and share your expertise with our team on adapting to algorithm updates like those prioritising reels, engagement quality, and AI-driven personalisation in 2025.
• Analyse metrics (engagement, reach, growth) and refine tactics based on what resonates.
• Create eye-catching visuals using tools like Canva, with opportunities for video editing and live sessions.
Who We’re Looking For:
• Students, graduates or anyone with knowledge and experience (perfect for resume-building with hands-on strategy experience).
• Initiative-takers with social media savvy (personal or school projects count!), love for animals, eagerness to learn and ready to teach us new tactics.
• Skilled in digital tools (Canva, CapCut, analytics platforms) and strong English for storytelling.
• Bonus: Graphic design, video skills, or experience in vegan/activist communities.
• Available 10-20 hours/week flexibly – fits around classes or life.
Based in Cambodia but open to volunteers worldwide, this role lets you demonstrate your skills from anywhere. No prior professional experience required – just your passion and willingness to hustle for animals!
How to Apply: send your CV, a short cover letter explaining why you love animals and how you’d fundraise for us, and links to any relevant social media or projects.
Let’s amplify your voice for animals – apply today and be the change our sanctuary needs!
Animals of Our World is an equal opportunity sanctuary. We celebrate diversity in our global volunteer team.
We are a UK-registered charity built on compassion for animals, and dedicated to ending and preventing animal suffering.

Beacon for Rare Diseases hosts The Resources Hub, a 100% free and accessible e-learning platform created to support the rare disease community, including:
- Patient groups, patients and families
- Researchers and life science professionals
- Rare disease advocates
The Resources Hub brings together over 100 free resources, including written courses, video guides, webinars and recordings from events and conferences. These resources are designed to support people at every stage of their rare disease journey, whether they are just getting started or are part of a well-established organisation.
We are incredibly proud of the breadth and quality of what’s available on the Hub. However, much of our long-standing content is under-promoted, meaning that people don’t always find the right resource at the right time.
“The Resources Hub provides invaluable resources to help patient group leaders navigate challenges such as caring responsibilities, health issues, and employment.”
“It breaks down topics relevant to the rare community in a way that's easy to digest and empowering to take action!”
--
About the role
We are looking for a social media volunteer to help us shine a light on the wealth of content already available within the Resources Hub.
In this role, you will:
- Spend time exploring our existing Resources Hub content
- Write 1–3 social media posts per resource, tailored for different platforms
- Help us build a reusable library of social media posts that we can draw on to promote resources when they are most relevant
This role is about helping people discover support that already exists, making it easier for patient groups and advocates to find information that could make a real difference to their work.
--
Who this role would suit
This is a specific, project-based placement and would suit someone who already has experience in communications, social media or content creation.
You’ll be someone who:
- Enjoys writing clear, engaging social media copy
- Understands how to adapt messaging across different platforms
- Is comfortable working independently and managing their own time
- Can take guidance on tone and branding and run with it
While we don’t have capacity to provide training, you won’t be left on your own. We will:
- Provide clear direction on priorities and approach
- Share brand guidance and examples
- Review initial work to make sure everything feels aligned
- Have routine check-ins, provide feedback, and an end-of-placement review
--
Time commitment and flexibility
This is a fully remote volunteering role, which we ideally hope can be completed within around three months. We anticipate a minimum commitment of approximately two hours per week, though a shorter, more intensive placement could also be arranged to suit the volunteer. We are open to having more than one volunteer on this project and do not expect a single person to work through the entire Hub.
Please note: we are looking for this placement to begin as soon as possible.
--
Why volunteer with Beacon?
By volunteering with Beacon, you will:
- Help improve access to free, high-quality resources for the rare disease community
- Support patient groups, patients and advocates to build confidence and capacity
- Gain experience working with a well-established national charity
- Take on a clearly defined project with flexible working
Beacon for rare diseases: ensuring that no one faces their rare journey alone

Although this is currently a volunteer position, Influential Stars is actively working to grow the platform with the long term aim of creating paid roles. While we are unable to provide a timeframe and future opportunities will depend on the organisation’s growth and incoming work, this role offers the chance to be part of that journey from an early stage.
