New Directors in IHF Centers in Kenya

Project Description:
The International Humanity Foundation (IHF) is seeking forward-thinking, dynamic graduates to contribute to our orphanage and education center in Kenya. At the centers, directors divide their time between teaching and nurturing the children and working on international tasks. All directors manage one or more of our international task teams such as university relations, photography, fundraising and media. Special projects constantly arise and include moving food during famine feeds to monitoring children during breaks. Our center directors have a lot of say in what they do and must possess excellent time management skills. Those who are secure without the comforts of home gain the most from this valuable opportunity. Although we are mainly seeking those with the above expertise, IHF is willing to consider those with transferrable skills if you can demonstrate them during our application process. Fluency in English, both written and spoken is essential. Those interested in volunteering at an IHF centre are required to complete a level of pre-trip duties in order to gain an understanding of how grassroots organizations function. Please take the time to familiarize yourself further with our organization -www.ihfonline.org. And to our blog http://ihfblog.wordpress.com/home/. If you have any questions at this time, feel free to e-mail one of our helpful volunteers - hiring4@ihfonline.org If you’re ready to apply please send a copy of your resume to hiring4@ihfonline.org.

Additional Skills Required:
In addition to teaching, our organization’s volunteers engage in: ? Public relations ? Fundraising ? Legal ? Finance ? Project experts (i.e., Peace farm and food relief initiatives) ? Media Stipend: Directors must commit to serve at least a year at the center. Basic accommodation and food is provided by IHF. Directors are volunteers at their centers, and all local tasks completed are done so without pay. Directors who commit to serving one year or more will receive a small monthly stipend. It is broken down as follow:- First 3 months: Training period. $20 per month 3-6 months. Assistant director. $50 per month 6-9 month. Co-Director. $80 per month 9-12months. Co-Director. $100 per month This stipend results only from the international online work; not from any local tasks. After one year there is the opportunity to become a full Director. The stipend starts at $100-$150 per month depending on performance. There is the possibility of becoming Executive director if the CEO and other Executive directors approve, and a salary may be awarded depending on the financial situation of IHF at the time. Strict IHF Policy: These stipends are fixed. They will not be raised for more experienced applicants, and everyone will be upgraded according to the timeframes outlined above, and no sooner. There are no exceptions to this, regardless of what may be the situation in the centre. We have found it impossible to be effective without IHF training and experience learning about the many tribes, cultures and laws affecting us daily as well as our own policies to best meet the many needs. We are an all-Volunteer organization and training and hands-on experience is paramount.
