Too often we hear charities saying young people don’t want to work in the non-profit sector. They couldn’t be more wrong! Every year we receive over 2000 applications from a diverse and talented group of young people. They are all eager to start their careers in the non-profit sector and are ready to hit the ground running. Help us develop tomorrow’s non-profit leaders by hiring a Charityworks trainee. Request a call via our website, and we can discuss your organisation's resourcing requirements. https://lnkd.in/em5Sc5xK

Hire diverse fundraising talent in your non-profit organisation with the Mark Astarita Fellowship. Mark, a fearless fundraiser who was deeply passionate about the sector passed away suddenly this April at just 64 years old. With the support of his colleagues at AAW and the generosity of a range of donors, The Mark Astarita Fellowship has been established in his memory, to support his career-long mission to diversify fundraising talent across the UK charity sector. Partnering with Charityworks, the fellowship will subsidise 50% of the Charityworks programme fee (bringing it down to £2297), and place candidates who have faced a range of barriers entering the charity sector into fundraising roles. We're seeking placements for the first cohort of Mark Astarita Fellows right now, with an ambition to place 20 fellows into fundraising roles across the UK charitable sector, with roles beginning between before February 2025.

A lack of diversity is holding the charity sector back. Despite greater acknowledgement of the need to diversify their workforces, non-profit organisations are struggling to recruit diverse talent, while individuals from underrepresented communities continue to face significant barriers to accessing roles. Without diverse workforces, organisations struggle to innovate, make informed decisions, and fail to reflect the lived experiences of the communities they serve, leading to strategies that are misaligned with actual needs. Is your non-profit struggling to recruit diverse talent? If so, we can help. We have candidates ready to fill vacancies right now.
