About Naz and Matt Foundation
Naz and Matt Foundation was founded in 2014 after the tragic loss of Naz (Dr Nazim Mahmood), who took his own life two days after his religious family confronted him about his sexuality. Since then, we’ve supported thousands of individuals and families, delivered hundreds of public talks, spoken in Parliament, worked with central government, and with police, schools, and media, and campaigned tirelessly for acceptance, love and understanding.
We exist to empower LGBTQI+ individuals, their friends and families to work through challenges of acceptance – particularly where religion is involved.
Everyone is welcome at our table – regardless of age, disability, gender identity, marital status, race, faith or belief, sexual orientation or socioeconomic background.
Our mission is to never let religion or culture come in the way of the unconditional love between parents and their children

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Wants to challenge outdated systems that have failed to prioritise menstrual wellbeing?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

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.
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.

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.

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.

Grant Writer
If you enjoy turning big ideas into clear, winning proposals, and you secretly love deadlines, this one’s for you.
We’re looking for a Grant Writer who can help us turn real impact into strong, fundable stories. You’ll work closely with our team to shape proposals, concept notes, and reports that reflect what’s actually happening on the ground with women and youth farmers.
This role is for someone who:
- Enjoys writing clear, sharp, and persuasive content.
- Can translate field work, data, and ideas into funder-ready language.
- Understands (or is excited to learn about) food systems, nutrition, climate, and livelihoods.
- Aligns with our mission and cares about impact beyond paperwork.
- Can structure ideas well and meet deadlines without drama.
You won’t be writing theory for theory’s sake. You’ll be helping unlock resources that allow farmers to eat better, earn more, and build climate resilience. If you believe good writing can move money, and money can move change, we’d love to work with you.

Support an organisation empowering and upskilling young people in Africa
Africa Matters Initiative works to provide young people in Africa with skills and knowledge to lead civic engagement and community-organised activities. Africa is the youngest continent in the world, with over 70% of the population being under 30. Some experts predict that the population of Sub-Saharan Africa will double by 2050. The unemployment rate is 2x that of adults, we see young people being forced to join the informal labour market/economy. They are working towards closing the skills gap affecting younger generations of Africans. Through a holistic approach to empowerment, their flagship programs integrate leadership and social entrepreneurship training with community-building initiatives to conceptualise and implement solutions that directly address social issues and foster income transformation in their communities.

The volunteer will work closely with AMI’s team to design one primary banner that can be adapted for use across our digital platforms, including our website, email marketing, and social media channels.

The volunteer may also provide guidance on best practices for resizing or adapting the banner for different platforms.
Ideal candidates have experience in graphic or visual design, are comfortable working with brand guidelines, and can deliver polished, high-quality design assets within a defined timeframe. Experience designing for nonprofits, social impact organizations, or digital campaigns is a plus but not required.
The expected time commitment is approximately 2–10 hours over 1–2 weeks, and the role can be completed remotely. All final design files will be shared with AMI for ongoing use.

Social Friday reinvents the end of the workweek by transforming unproductive Friday hours into a global tradition of purpose, teamwork, and impact—connecting businesses, nonprofits, and communities through hands-on engagement.

Beyond one-time events, Social Friday is designed to scale into a lasting global movement, embedding social impact into work culture and everyday life.
How It Works
A scalable platform connects businesses, NGOs, and volunteers, transforming Fridays into a global force for change through engagement, collaboration, and gamification. By integrating leaderboards, challenges, badges, and rewards, Social Friday keeps participation exciting and fosters a culture where social impact becomes part of the routine.
This isn’t just about reducing disengagement. It is about transforming the way society, nonprofits, and businesses connect, creating a future where social impact is a shared responsibility, embedded into everyday life.
