Marketing and Selling Merchandise for Refugee Charity

We are looking for somebody with experience in marketing, campaigns, and selling products for great causes!

Hope for the Young is a small charity that supports young refugees and asylum-seekers in the UK through mentoring, advocacy, and financial support.

We are launching our very own Hope for the Young merchandise in preparation for Refugee Week.

The young refugees we work with have created some of the most beautiful artwork led by the theme of "Home."

We have worked with an incredible designer who has put these pieces together and turned the young people's artwork into stunning designs that we will would like to sell in order to raise awareness and funds for Hope for the Young.

We have found ourselves without a Fundraising and Communications Officer who was previously working on this project and are therefore looking for somebody who can lead this exciting project to help us raise vital funds towards our work supporting young refugees in the UK.

The designs are ready. We now need to get these printed onto bags, t-shirts, and jumpers.

We then need to setup a way to sell these through our website and existing fundraising platform - we currently use Raisley.

Finally, we need to create an exciting marketing campaign in preparation for Refugee Week (17th - 23rd June 2024) to help promote and sell these items during the week and beyond.

We are looking for somebody with experience in marketing, campaigns, and selling products for great causes.

We are a small charity with limited resources and have never done anything like this before. We therefore need somebody who understands the challenges we are likely to face and is willing to roll up their sleeves and help make this new revenue stream a success!

I am expecting this role could be carried out 1 day per week over 6 weeks but open to suggestions for what is realistic.

I would welcome any expressions of interest outlining why you would be best placed to help us with this work.
