Volunteer for a startup restoring land and empowering rural African communities
Rural Watch Africa Initiative (RUWAI) We restore degraded landscapes and empower rural communities with sustainable agriculture, beekeeping, and green livelihoods.
RUWAI tackles the urgent, interconnected challenges of deforestation, climate change vulnerability, and rural poverty in Africa. Many rural communities rely on unsustainable practices like slash-and-burn farming and illegal logging, leading to widespread land degradation, soil depletion, and increased desertification. This vulnerability, coupled with limited resources and high unemployment, forces many—especially youth and women—into destructive practices, worsening food insecurity and biodiversity loss, including the rapid decline of critical pollinators like bees.
RUWAI employs a holistic, community-driven solution focusing on Sustainable Agroforestry and Land Restoration through large-scale tree planting and Farmer-Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR). They promote Sustainable Beekeeping to protect pollinators and create an alternative income source, and train smallholder farmers in Climate-Smart Agriculture and regenerative techniques to boost food security. Furthermore, RUWAI focuses on Economic Empowerment by creating green livelihoods through agro-processing, eco-tourism, and microfinance, with a special focus on empowering women. By integrating these strategies, RUWAI restores ecosystems, builds climate resilience, and creates sustainable economic opportunities, ensuring that rural communities and nature can thrive together.

Volunteer for a startup supporting infant health and parental wellbeing ❤️
Doozy Baby
We provide a wearable Kangaroo Care system and app supporting infant health and parental wellbeing.
Doozy Baby addresses the critical challenges faced during the early months of parenthood, including infant discomfort, parental anxiety, and the postpartum knowledge gap. Many newborns suffer from colic and sleep disturbances, while parents often experience high stress and fatigue. Furthermore, a lack of evidence-based guidance frequently prevents fathers and partners from participating equally in caregiving, placing undue pressure on mothers.
The solution is the Doozy Hug, a patented wearable system designed to promote Kangaroo Care—clinically proven skin-to-skin contact that regulates an infant’s temperature and heart rate. This technology mimics a parent's gentle breathing and warmth, comforting the baby while allowing parents to rest. This is paired with the Doozy App, which provides personalized insights, activity tracking, and practical guidance on early development. By combining innovative hardware with digital support, Doozy Baby fosters secure attachment, supports parental mental health, and encourages equitable caregiving, directly contributing to SDG 3 (Good Health) and SDG 5 (Gender Equality) for a more balanced family life.

Volunteer for an organisation combating mental health with menstrual literacy ❤️
Howami is an immersive menstrual wellness app for teens. Howami addresses the growing mental health risks for women, low menstrual literacy, and persistent period stigma. The World Health Organization’s 2023 Menstrual Health report highlights the global need for improved menstrual literacy and awareness. This report emphasizes the importance of education about menstruation and creating positive norms. Our innovation leverages advanced gaming technology for therapeutic outcomes, aiming to counteract the negative effects of social media by promoting embodiment and self-awareness.
Howami is an innovative mobile application designed to help menstruating individuals engage with their menstrual cycle and emotions through the use of advanced game design technology, CGI visuals, and a fluid, gesture-controlled interface. Our mission is to combat the mental health crisis affecting women, a crisis exacerbated by unhealthy social media usage, lack of menstrual literacy, and persistent period stigma. Our app provides a safe, healthy, and non-exploitative platform tailored to the needs of people.
Campaign Lead: The Million Moon project
Campaign Lead – Howami brings you "The One Million Moon" project
Volunteer Role · Global · Flexible Hours, to be discussed, starting ASAP in 2026!
Are you someone who:
Believes young people deserve better?
Wants to challenge outdated systems that have failed to prioritise menstrual wellbeing?
Feels called to build something bold, compassionate, and culturally transformative?
Thrives at the intersection of creativity, activism, and social impact?
Cares deeply about young people, emotions, cycles, and the hidden work of growing up?
Wants to make real change — not just talk about it?
If yes, you might be the movement-builder we’re looking for.
Why this The Million Moon Campaign Exists
We’re bringing a groundbreaking global project to life in 2026 - a project that will shift how the world understands menstrual wellbeing and youth emotional literacy.
But we are not building it through the usual routes:
No venture capital.
No extractive profit-first models.
No gatekeepers shaping the direction of the work.
Instead, we are choosing to:
Place power in the hands of the community we serve - young menstruators, families, educators, allies.
Challenge the structures that have historically underfunded, misunderstood, or minimised menstrual health.
Prioritise care, safety, inclusivity, cultural sensitivity, and emotional wellbeing over growth-for-growth’s-sake.
Build a model of ethical resourcing that is transparent, human-centred, and participatory.
Create a movement first, and a product second.
This volunteer role is for someone who wants to help shape a new way of doing social impact work, one that honors lived experience, builds global community, and bypasses the systems that haven’t served us.
The full details of the project will be shared with the successful volunteer, but for now, what you need to know is this:
You will be helping us launch a global campaign unlike anything else in menstrual wellbeing.
A campaign rooted in art, story, community, and change.
Your Role: Campaign Lead (Movement Builder)
As Campaign Lead, you will work closely with Howami’s co-founder Nikki Berridge to bring this campaign into the world. Because the founder is narcoleptic with limited working capacity, you will be the operational heart of the project, the person who turns big vision into clear, coordinated action.
What You’ll Gain
A front-row seat to building a global menstrual wellbeing movement
Experience leading a culturally significant, multi-layered campaign
Opportunities to work with artists, educators, youth advocates, and storytellers
Mentorship and collaboration with Howami’s founder
A chance to shape a project that could shift culture for generations
A meaningful role that genuinely changes lives
You will:
Help consolidate and organise all existing ideas, research, and creative development.
Hold and organise the project workflow.
Help create decks, briefs, and communications tailored to different audiences.
Reach out to aligned influencers, partners, schools, brands, and communities
Assist in shaping public-facing messaging and campaign materials
Support Nikki in the design and management of this global awareness campaign
Co-steer the movement with confidence, warmth, and imagination
Bring consistency, clarity, and structure to a creative, values-driven project
The technical knowhow and platforms needed to bring a campaign like this to life.
"All the above would be magnificent- but I also want you to know that you could take on 'part of this Role'. Passion is key so If any of this ignites something in you - reach out and introduce yourself." Nikki Berridge
You don’t need to know menstrual health deeply - ALL genders Welcome!
You DO need to care, communicate, organise, and be ready to create change.
Ready to help build something the world hasn’t seen before?
Please share a few lines on why this mission speaks to you and what capacity you have in the new year....
Best wishes,
The Howami team

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.
Community Marketing & Storytelling Partner
We’re looking for someone who loves storytelling, community-building, and thoughtful marketing—not hype or hard sells.
In this role, you’ll support The Nonprofit Hive by helping translate real community moments into clear, human-centered marketing. This might include shaping LinkedIn posts, email highlights, short stories from Hive conversations, or helping us experiment with content themes that resonate with nonprofit professionals globally.
You’ll work closely with our small core team to ensure our messaging stays authentic, values-aligned, and grounded in lived experience—while still helping us grow sustainably.
This is a great fit for someone who enjoys narrative, relationship-first marketing, and wants to contribute to a mission-driven ecosystem without burnout culture.
Minimum Hours per Week:
2-3 hours per week
Duration:
3-5 months
We connect professionals with impact startups matching their causes, skills & schedule.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.

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.
