Tools with a Mission
| Name: | Community Champion |
| Organisation: | Tools with a Mission |
| Location: | |
| Type: | Part Time |
Description
The main role of a Community Champion is to help raise support in their community for TWAM. This will mean organising events (or finding people to organise them) such as coffee mornings, quiz nights, open gardens and all sorts of creative ways to fundraise.
It means keeping an eye on what is going on in the community and perhaps finding people to enter sponsored events such as fun runs, 10Ks, walks for
TWAM.
It will include working with our other volunteers to arrange events such as TWAM evenings with coffee and cake or a buffet.
Community Fundraisers need to be people with big ideas
and the energetic enthusiasm to see them through.

Organisation Description
The charitable work of Tools with a Mission is to collect unwanted tools, refurbish them, sort them into trade kits and send them across the world for livelihood creation. We send around 20 containers filled with over 300 tonnes of tools every year. To do this we rely on a national volunteer workforce and welcome people of all ages and abilities and of any faith and no faith.
We do this because we want to support local people supporting their own communities through sustainable livelihood creating projects. We believe there is dignity through work and the ability to provide for yourself and your family. We believe entire communities can be transformed through training and the provision of tool kits and equipment.

Skills and Qualifications
Requirements
Passionate, energetic people who can organise things and get things done, and people who can identify
others and mobilise them to organise events. We really need people who can work as a team and really get
stuck into the very exciting role.
Benefits
We always need people to collect tools and refurbish them, but without the funds to run our vans and keep
our Refurbishment Centres operating, nothing would happen. Shipping to Africa costs a lot of money and
again, we need the funds to do it. This is why the Community Champion is so important, and this is the
difference you will make, because nothing happens without the people willing to ask for the funds to run the
charity.
