Fundraising Volunteer

Fundraising Volunteers

Watford and Three Rivers Refugee Partnership are looking to recruit volunteers who are able to fundraise creatively in the local community and with businesses to support our charity.

Our aims

We offer practical and emotional support to asylum seekers and refugees in Watford and Three Rivers. Many of our clients are destitute, homeless and have no access to assistance from the government. Our mission is to provide access to advice and essential services until statutory services are in place.

Our needs

The Refugee Partnership is a volunteer-led organisation with a growing client base. We also continually need funds to support us in providing food vouchers for our clients as well as assisting clients in their basic living needs and the increasing cost of legal fees.

What we are looking for

We would like to establish a fundraising group of volunteers who will focus on promoting fundraising opportunities for the WTRRP.  It would be helpful but not necessary if you have some of the following skills;

• experience of organising events or an interest in doing this
• being able to work as part of a team
• experience of using social media to generate interest in fundraising
• ability to promote what we do by giving talks within the community
• experience of completing fundraising applications
• an interest in organising traditional fundraising events such as bake sales, collections etc.

What we offer                               

• an opportunity to make good use of your skills and also have a go at new activities
• a chance to become a part of a charity entering a new phase of its development
• membership of a creative team generating much needed funds
• working alongside an established Grants Team
