Katie conducted thorough research into corporate fundraising, and made a significant impact by reaching out to prospective new Trust and Foundations. Katie demonstrated a positive and proactive attitude, displaying both independence and teamwork skills.

Fundraising Intern

Jun 2023 - Aug 2023
Over a period of 7 weeks at Deki, I developed a corporate fundraising plan for the charity, providing them with the basis from which they can advance their strategies for corporate fundraising. I focused particularly on Deki's healthcare programme, MUSA, and working on bringing in corporate sponsors for the Christmas Big Give campaign. I also worked to secure funding from various trusts and foundations for Deki's three main projects, which focus on healthcare, women's empowerment, and agricultural skills for sustainable farming.

As a Community Management intern in Porto, I worked with colleagues and volunteers in both English and Portuguese to organise language groups both for the general public and for refugees. I also helped to match volunteers to refugees in the initial phases of SPEAK's Help Ukraine project. I organised events for the SPEAK Porto community and managed SPEAK Porto's team of event ambassadors. I worked more widely with the SPEAK team to improve SPEAK's materials and to support other SPEAK communities across Portugal and the rest of Europe. Show less
