Opportunities From: Connect2Community

We are a small, faith-based non-profit working to alleviate severe acute malnutrition— and address some of the causes that lead to it— in the country of Haiti.

Hours are flexible (you can work on your own schedule), but ideally we’re looking for a commitment of 5-10 hours per week for a minimum of 3 months. .

As a nonprofit organization working internationally, most of our donors will never have the opportunity to see our mission in person, so it’s vitally important to make sure that our supporters are involved and kept up to date on what is happening on the ground in Haiti. Social media has become our main form of communication with our donors to share stories and raise money to fund our programs. We have a very active social media calendar with multiple campaigns throughout the year and several monthly newsletters and emails to plan and design.

It is only with the support that comes from a strong and engaging social media presence thatwe can offer programs that truly save lives and change the future of countless children and their families in Haiti.
