What are the responsibilities and job description for the Volunteer Grant Writer position at VolunteerMatch?
BonZeb is seeking to bring a truly affordable and sustainable solution to Haiti. It is inevitable that the current charcoal industry, which is based on the destruction of trees, will completely deforest the country within the next 2-3 years. They are already cutting down mango trees for charcoal. Without an alternative source for cooking fuel, the cost of charcoal will skyrocket beyond the present average household cost of $1.25 per day. With 25% to 40% of average income of 80% of the population being spent on cooking fuel, any increase in cost will be devastating to the already impoverished population.
BonZeb has developed a low-tech method for processing various feedstocks-native grasses grown by local farmers-into charcoal briquettes. This process will lower the cost of charcoal by 40% to 50% and will decrease the need to use trees for charcoal.
BonZeb will work with local farmers, landowners, small business entrepreneurs, NGO’s and communities to grow these feedstocks and will utilize local labor for manufacturing. This process will create new small businesses, jobs and new skill sets (management, processing, storage, shipping, marketing, and sales) and will foster economic development within the rural communities.
, We are looking for individuals who can help craft 2 or 3 grants per year in the area of economic and community development in Haiti. We also need grants for our biomass fuel program, converting grass to cleaner burning charcoal and our secondary and university scholarship programs.
This is a remote opportunity and can be done on your time from your own home. All the pertinent information needed for grant application will be supplied.
