The Fiorentini Foundation is looking for two enthusiastic Fundraising & Events Trustees to help us develop creative and enjoyable ways of raising funds and bringing our community together. This is a voluntary, unpaid Trustee position and could suit someone with fundraising or events experience, but equally someone who is organised, full of ideas and enjoys getting involved. We are particularly interested in people who can help us inspire our parents, families and wider community to become more involved in supporting the Foundation.
We are not expecting a Trustee to personally organise every event. We are looking for people who will bring ideas, enthusiasm and practical support, taking ownership of particular projects where appropriate. This could be anything from helping organise a raffle, sponsored challenge or family fundraising activity to developing an idea for a larger Foundation event. Experience in fundraising, events, community engagement, marketing or the charity sector would be beneficial, but is not essential. Experience of engaging parents, families or local communities would also be particularly valuable. Trustees currently attend four meetings per year via Zoom. Additional involvement will vary depending on fundraising campaigns and events, and we understand that Trustees will be fitting the role around other commitments.
We recognise that our trustees have busy professional and personal lives. We're not looking for people to undertake day-to-day operational roles, but for enthusiastic individuals who can share their knowledge, ideas and connections to help our charity flourish.
