Our non-profit campaign is committed to positively impacting the Rohingya Refugee Community in Bangladesh. The goal is to support the most vulnerable segments of the Rohingya Camps, which we have identified to be children and pregnant women. We aim to do this by partnering with organizations that are actively working at the ground-level. The Catalyst Foundation for Universal Education has generously agreed to match donations up to $20,000 as these funds will only be used for educational purposes. All donations will go to JAAGO Foundation and Doctors Without Borders (MSF) and trusted international non-profits, who are assisting Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh. Thus far, we have raised over $33,000 in total.Find out more on our website: http://www.riseforrohingya.orgInstagram: instagram.com/riseforrohingyaFacebook: facebook.com/risefortherohingyaTwitter: twitter.com/rise4rohingyaOur target is three fold:• raise awareness about the Rohingya Crisis • provide funding to active organizations working in the camps• positively impact the Rohingya Refugee Camps through fund disbursement and advocacyMy responsibilities are to:▪ Fully manage all social media accounts and email (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Gmail)▪ Create, curate and manage published content on social media (images, videos, articles and text)▪ Create, organize, develop and optimize website content (http://www.riseforrohingya.org/)▪ Improve user-friendliness, functionality and increase website traffic▪ Develop fundraising activity plans that maximize participation or contributions and minimize costs▪ Provide information of upcoming events, meetings, opportunities through all social media▪ Develop relevant content topics to reach target audience and advocate for campaign▪ Monitor, listen and respond to any questions, comments and/or concerns▪ Reach out to various club/organization leaders locally and globally▪ Design event flyers and brochures▪ Manage production of documentary series
