VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES OVERVIEWMarketing expertise in support of womens’ entrepreneurship
SPI develops marketing plans with partners to assist communities and families in selling vegetables they produce to earn income to support their households. Often this involves women and designing marketing approaches that supports their entrepreneurship. This income enables families to purchase school supplies and pay for health care needs among other necessities. Volunteers could act as thought-partners for reviewing marketing plans and suggesting marketing approaches. Reviewing plans and providing comments occurs over the course of the year and is flexible in terms of the number of hours spent. Volunteering time may include participating in planning meetings as appropriate.
Supply Chain Expertise
SPI works with partners to establish sustainable local supply chains to ensure that communities have sustained access to seed and inputs for vegetable production post-project. SPI always enters projects with an exit strategy in mind and is careful not to create dependencies in which communities require continual support from SPI to access seed. Volunteers could act as thought-partners for reviewing supply chain development plans and suggesting supply chain approaches. Reviewing plans and providing comments occurs over the course of the year and is flexible in terms of the number of hours spent. Volunteering time may include participating in planning meetings as appropriate.
Crisis relief seed shipment support
In crisis situations SPI works with local partners to ensure that affected communities have access to seed and associated knowledge to get back on their feet. Shipping during crisis situations can be difficult. Volunteers could be a resource for understanding if an option to ship to other location in the country where the crisis has occurred is possible. If possible volunteers could then facilitate tracking, reception, and distribution of the shipment in support of crisis relief efforts. This volunteer opportunity is a low-frequency high-intensity engagement opportunity that is somewhat unpredictable although certain seasons (e.g. hurricane season) have a known regularity.
Agronomy Education Support
SPI develops training materials that support communities to build their capacity in vegetable production. Volunteers could provide skill-based value to this work by reviewing educational materials and suggesting improvements. Additionally, volunteers could do virtual train-the-trainer sessions with SPI partners to support their understanding and delivery of training materials. Reviewing materials and providing comments occurs over the course of the year and is flexible in terms of the number of hours spent. Participating in train-the-trainer sessions can be selected from a rolling schedule with volunteers selecting to participate in sessions that fit their schedule.
