Volunteer for EduSpots

The EduSpots team are always team-building!

Alongside new paid staff roles in Ghana (see recent news articles for roles relating to operations and education), EduSpots is looking for further committed to volunteers who want to contribute in diverse ways to our ever-evolving work – which is all centred on supporting a network of 250 local volunteers who drive community-led change through education centres named Spots in rural Ghana and Kenya.

Through all these positions will gain huge insight into education and international development and collective action through learning on a daily basis on WhatsApp from our active network of 250 volunteers in rural Ghana who are the main focus of our work and our reason for existence. Read our most recent impact report here.

You can apply for any of these positions by applying through Charity Jobs or sending your CV and cover letter to info@eduspots.org explaining your motivation for supporting through the position. We are looking for people who are committed and able to offer at least 5 hours/week, and support us in the longer term.

Community Volunteers 

If you are in one of our Spot communities – see here, simply sign-up to volunteer here and we will connect you with the Project Leaders. Note that we are not expanding our network of Spots to new areas at present due to a need to focus on driving a sustainable impact in current communities.

Internships

We are looking for committed and self-motivated interns who are keen to gain practical skills and understanding relating to education and international development, and provide wide-ranging support to our team in Ghana and the UK, to enable us to increase our impact in a period of growth. The internship will be remote for 3 months, with the opportunity of extending this period. The time is 7-10 hours / week but this can be spread out throughout the week. Due to limited organisational time, we need interns to be committed to the work, and able to work independently. We will consider interns in any geographical location. Read more on Charity Jobs here.

Community Fundraising  Officer

We are looking for someone to create and oversee our community fundraising strategy. This will involve identifying opportunities for EduSpots to raise funds from communities and individual donors, supporting individuals in leading fundraising events and campaigns, and supporting the growth of a network of ambassadors.  Read more on Charity Jobs here.
