Design a logo for an entrepreneur!
The Opportunity: Having a strong and consistent brand identity is essential for small businesses to build brand recognition, acquire customers and drive sales. However, many entrepreneurs don’t have the budget, time or skills needed to design a logo that reflects their brand’s identity. That’s where you come in! Our virtual logo design project is the perfect opportunity if you are looking to volunteer your time and talent to support small businesses and the innovators behind them. Are you a good fit? You have at least 3 years of professional experience in logo design and are located in the United States or in a country with overlapping timezones (e.g Canada, Mexico). What will you be doing? Once approved as a volunteer, you will have access to our opportunity list and logo design projects available. You will then connect one-on-one with an entrepreneur to scope out the project and deliverables, and ultimately design a logo for their business. What is the time commitment? Logo design projects typically last between 30 and 45 days, depending on your availability. This includes some preparation and design time (flexible to your schedule) and interactions with the entrepreneur (via email, phone or video conferencing). This is a limited-scope opportunity with a clear deliverable and end date. Does Start Small Think Big provide resources to get started? We provide information about the entrepreneur, their business and their needs, and, if available, a design brief from the entrepreneur with input on their brand colors, fonts and other relevant information. Ready to use your skills for good? Join our passionate community of volunteers by completing your volunteer application here: https://www.startsmallthinkbig.org/volunteer. We welcome multilingual volunteers, particularly those able to support Spanish-speaking small business owners. Please note: In order to volunteer, you must reside in the United States or in a country with overlapping time zones. For more information or questions, email us at: volunteer@startsmallthinkbig.org

Become A Mentor for Youth Struggling During the Pandemic - ALL ONLINE
with Be A Mentor, Inc.The COVID-19 pandemic challenged most people, but reports suggest that the impact on teenagers has been especially significant. While adults have also reported that COVID-19-related fears and stress have impaired their mental health, young people have been particularly susceptible because of school closures and distance learning, the inability to interact closely with friends, stress, and loneliness. They have fallen behind both academically and socially and need YOU to step in help them get on track! We need your special skills and perspective to show a young person what opportunities they have and give them the confidence to work towards big goals. An Academic Mentor is a trusted caring adult that spends at least one hour per week with their mentee using Be A Mentor’s Virtual Mentoring Platform. Mentors focus on goal setting, homework help, and career exploration. While there may be a focus on homework help in the meetings, these sessions are more than just tutoring. Mentees form a personal relationship with their mentor to build resilience, social engagement, and a support network. Virtual mentoring removes barriers of distance, requires no commute time, and can offer a flexible schedule. However, mentors must be in the United States. Due to our current background check system we are unable to accept anyone outside of the US at this time. Sign up to become an Academic Mentor and help a youth reach their full potential.

Nationwide and Worldwide Volunteers
Volunteering for Global Paint is a great way to give back and connect with your community. The Global Paint for Charity needs volunteers to help us with various tasks. Shifts are just 3-4 hours per day, and every minute of your time will help us build a better future for vulnerable families, their children, and communities. There are six exciting methods of helping out at Global Paint for Charity. Volunteer with us to help with our collections and consolidations of paint programs. Assemble and mix paint containers by characteristics, types, brands, colors, and labels. You must be at least 16 years or older. Volunteer with us to inspect, count, store, and record paint inventory in the warehouse. Then, prepare paint containers for shipping, usually 5 or 55 gallons. Volunteer with us to provide transportation to pick up paint from residents and local donation collections and bring it to us. Volunteer with our partners, who fund our programs and donations through multiple fundraising efforts, including periodical paint donation drives, auctions, or special events. Volunteer as a Global Paint Board Member: creating service standards and policy and recommending our funding. Volunteer with us to paint and make a difference in our community. There are dozens of paint project opportunities. We are currently accepting applications for the following volunteer-based projects to transform and beautify our city one mural at a time: Outdoor home painting for residents who are physically and financially unable to paint the residence independently. Painting of common neighborhood areas can include wall painting, community parks, sidewalks, and Dividing Lanes. I am painting a homeless shelter and repainting a historic cemetery and vacant houses. Painting classrooms at a public schools, stadiums, and much more. Finally, our travel program targets high-achieving minority students and volunteers seeking global exposure or diverse experience abroad. Students or volunteers will work with local community members in various small villages (areas with no electricity, clean drinking water, access to the Internet, etc...) to paint and solve local problems. Traveling abroad to help beautify homes and communities for those in need worldwide is a fun and rewarding learning experience. Such experience also allows students to be competitive and stand out in the global market. If you want to volunteer abroad, please get in touch with our team at info@globalpaints.org to get started.

Web Application Developer
with OPPIA FOUNDATION INCWe are looking for a volunteer software developer to collaborate on building features for an open source education platform that aims to make high-quality basic education accessible for everyone. The volunteer would contribute to the development of tools that enable the community to translate lessons into multiple languages, or improve the learning experience for under-resourced learners around the world who use the platform to learn. We currently have openings available on the Web and Android teams! Please follow the instructions on our GitHub wiki pages to get started: Web: https://github.com/oppia/oppia/wiki/Contributing-code-to-Oppia#setting-things-up Android: https://github.com/oppia/oppia-android/wiki/Contributing-to-Oppia-android#onboarding-instructions Who Are We? The Oppia Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with the mission to provide high quality education to all. We do this through the creation and maintenance of our platform, Oppia (https://www.oppia.org), the coordination of our passionate contributors, and the development of critical partnerships with NGOs in the communities we aim to serve. Even before COVID-19, students around the world were facing difficulties accessing quality education due to conflict, discrimination, lack of teacher training, and more. However, with COVID-19 forcing everyone to stay quarantined in their own homes, students now more than ever need access to free, quality education to ensure that they can continue to learn even if they cannot attend school. Why Oppia is an Organization You Want to Work With Oppia has served over 2,000,000 users. Oppia focuses on effectiveness, and conducts rigorous user testing and RCTs to validate the lessons we offer. Learners using Oppia’s lessons have seen gains of 50+% from pre-test to post-test. Oppia's contributors actively help to provide students around the world with basic education. Please see https://medium.com/@ebelubhuhiose/86b97283edf4 and https://medium.com/@ojobusayo99/6e783aaddb74 for examples of our current work. Oppia has a community of hundreds of passionate volunteers from across the globe, so our meetings are held online at flexible times. What our Software Development team contributes Software developers will work closely with other volunteer developers around the world, Oppia's design team, and NGOs in various countries who are in direct contact with students, in order to implement features and key functionality to help learners and translators. The team is very collaborative and has a culture of providing and receiving constructive feedback through code reviews. Some examples of projects we're working on include: Adding functionality in the "contributor dashboard" to ease the process of translating lessons Fixing small issues in the lesson player that confuse students who haven't used a phone before Finding ways to make the site faster and more performant on low-end devices Don't worry if you're new to "open source", or if you're still a student -- many of our contributors are, too, and we'd be more than happy to provide mentorship and support if this is your first time contributing to an open source project! The main thing is that you care deeply about helping people around the world to learn things better, and that you're responsible and reliable. If you'd like to help out, please feel free to get started by following the instructions on our GitHub wiki pages: https://github.com/oppia/oppia/wiki/Contributing-code-to-Oppia#setting-things-up (if you're interested in Web development) https://github.com/oppia/oppia-android/wiki (if you're interested in Android development). We look forward to meeting you!

Attorneys - help victims of child abuse
with JUSTICE FOR CHILDRENLegal services are a frequent need for clients that contact Justice for Children. Keeping their child safe from an abuser may require protective orders, divorce from an abuser, the need to establish or modify child custody and, many times, child support. Many of the victimized children we work with are the product of unmarried parents creating a need for the establishment of paternity. These clients lack the monetary resources to hire attorneys. The abuse of their child and lack of immediate resources to access services desperately places them in a crisis mode and highly emotional making the process even more daunting to them.

Group or Class Projects For Students
The World Health Organization and Center for Disease Control estimated that 3 million children die yearly from diarrhea and harmful germs on interior surfaces, including unpainted walls and unsanitary conditions. Also, mosquito viruses result in the deaths of more than 6 million people every year. And just one touch of latex paint on the wall is to become the latest solution to reduce the number of deaths by 75% in developing countries every year. Nearly 150 million gallons of paint are wasted in The United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and New Zealand. At the same time, about 2.5 billion people in developing countries live on less than $2 a day and can't save enough to buy a gallon of paint. So when people paint their home or a plant is closed, they have a lot of "paint." Unfortunately, some of this "paint" is perfectly new or half-full and could be donated to the needy community rather than thrown away. So today, we've mobilized over 200 companies across several states in the U.S. and five countries to present their non-consumable paint for our humble cause. Although Global Paint for Charity has made tremendous progress in its mission, the lack of paint in many developing countries remains challenging. In many countries, people are cutting down trees for firewood with stones and soil to make color powders, and fruits and vegetables (i.e., beets, lime, carrots, etc.) must be used to paint. This outdated practice existed a hundred thousand years ago simply because people didn't have today's technology to make paint. But we all agree that people who live on $2 a day should not have to use their fruit and food resources to beautify their homes. Global Paint for Charity works to help underprivileged families that otherwise could not save enough to buy a bucket of paint by supplying excellent quality paint to reduce deforestation and eliminate outdated activities to make paint. Why is this issue important to our organization? Global Paint for Charity's mission is to recover leftover paint from businesses and residences, reprocess it and distribute it to vulnerable individuals and families in developing countries worldwide. And many of the existing family homes, schools, churches, hospitals, and orphanages are in such a poor state of renovation that they are not only in uninhabitable conditions but also poorly conducive to safety and healthy living standards in many countries around the world. Eighty percent of school in most developing countries has never been painted, and 70 million children have never had a painted classroom. The infrastructures in many classrooms in developing countries are unacceptable. Many people in the United States take their classrooms and necessities for granted, but children in developing countries treasure their painted classrooms. In October, we launched the "Basic Schools Beautification Programs in Africa," which aims to paint approximately 8000 Schools in 12 countries by 2025. We hope all underserved children and adults learn in a comfortable and painted classroom someday. And in Central America, our volunteers paint schools and orphanages, which helped save many lives. Thanks to their efforts, single mothers and young girls can layer coating on their murals or furniture and craft products to attract local customers. The number of women starting and running their painting businesses grows daily. So many of them lived in poverty, and they lacked abilities, education, and opportunities. Our programs help underprivileged people to launch small paint businesses and assist them in realizing their dreams around the world. We know a painted house ccan'tsolve all of their problems, but it does give them hope, comfort, and a positive spirit, builds their confidence, and makes them feel better. When a house or school is painted, it becomes the community hub in rural areas; people gather there to network and socialize. The painted home or classroom has become a place that creates happiness and offers and inspires the entire community. The PProject'sFocus Many local groups from different Universities in the U.S. have worked with The Global Paint for Charity on various projects. These projects are part of an "out" "experience through which students have the opportunity to integrate and apply the knowledge acquired in multiple courses related to Non-profit Management, Finance, Accounting, Marketing, Public relations, Economics, Administrative Law, Policy Analysis, Criminal Justice, Logistics, Technology, and Urban Planning and Development. In addition, through our community service programs, we have coached, mentored, and trained individuals to behave and ultimately become better community workers, students, and leaders. What specific activities do we expect the Group to complete? Your students will benefit from engaging in activities and opportunities to learn and contribute more meaningfully. For example, we currently have 12 projects, creating marketing materials, developing a strategic plan, community development, supply chain management, creating spreadsheets, developing Urban Community Beautification projects (Murals & Artworks), and conducting surveys. Students will also be able to supervise their projects and become leaders and officers of an actual functioning non-profit organization. Can you imagine your students entering the job markets out of college and saying that their experience with Global Paint has provided them the confidence and personal experience to locate a specific industry? Can you imagine your students applying for a job or internship and being able to show the interviewer how they developed a successful project or how they managed a community project? The deliverables that we hope to receive from the project. After completing the projects, the Group would be asked to present their final work to the organization's Executives and Board of Directors, taking place virtually or at their school or The Alston and Bird LLC building. Some funding will be available to assist the team with business expenses, transportation, meals, etc. Project Activities -Information management- Blockchain Integration -Review contracts/proposals/Strategic Plan - Collection and Supply Chain Development (Donors/Volunteers/Customers/vendor relations) -Data Entry- Contents Management -PR, Marketing & Communication -Business Plan -Product Development The Group must consist of 4-10 students who can come from various professional and educational backgrounds. For example, they can be high-school students and seasoned professionals with years of work experience in private and public organizations, recent college graduates committed to public service, and mid-career professionals who want to advance or shift their career paths. The Projects and the needs of the Groups: * We will provide a clear definition of the problem or issue to be addressed in the project; * Projects are targeted key issues in scope; * Provide Students with specifics and hands-on experience; * The Projects are achievable within the academic semester (approximately 12 weeks) and with the resources available to support the Group and your program expectations; and, * Are essential to your scschool'surriculum. The Group will not be asked to do administrative support work or involved in fundraising activities or other types of events without their prprofessor'sermission to support the teteam'sfforts appropriately. Please refer to www.globalpaints.org and gain a perspective of our international and local impact. Would you mind passing it along as you see a great opportunity within your network? Global Paint for Charity has several initiatives where your students can gain real-life experience in their primary area of interest. By working on Global PaPaint'sission, your students will get impactful and experiential learning opportunities that go many steps beyond voluntarism that challenge them to apply their expertise professionally in a real-world context.

with Farms to Grow, Inc4521 Telegraph AvenueOakland, CA 94609Thu, June 1, 2023 - Wed, August 2, 2023NORTH AMERICA ONLY Hi there, We need PR assistance with a documentary on the legacy of Black farmers. We kicked off a 12 Month - 12 City Tour in September 2022. Rhythms of the Land Documentary by Dr. Gail P. Myers During the summer of 2012, Dr. Myers toured 10 southern states -- Texas, Arkansas, South Carolina, North Carolina, Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, Tennessee and Florida -- interviewing over 30 farmers, sharecroppers, and gardeners and a 5th generation coil basket weaver. Several of these interviews are with elders, 98, 92, and 109. Suffice it to say, the wisdom and personalities of the elders farmers are infectious. These interviews represent generations of cultural traditions of Black farming philosophy that honors land, sustainability, God, family and love for their community. Hearing their stories will honor these US farmers, sharecroppers, and gardeners and spotlight the connection between biological and cultural diversity that will connect us to our roots, especially our future farmers, and youth. The film will spotlight an array of farmers, rice growers, hog ranchers, dairy ranchers, barefoot farmers, sharecroppers, basket-weavers, shrimp farmers, vegetable farmers, and gardeners, each sharing their memorable stories with us for the first time. Are you available to assist? Thanks, Elaine

For more than 15 years, we have promised-and delivered-real results to over 15,000 students by connecting them to a small community of educators and mentors stocked with content expertise and emotional intelligence. Our top priority is to empower students to grow in confidence, competence, and grit. We are driven by the conviction that although potential is equally distributed across lines of race and class, opportunity is not. Aspire is dedicated to interrupting patterns of inequity in our community, with the shared vision that all young people should have the opportunity for equally high outcomes without regard to where they start in life. Aspire has three main service offerings: Collaborative Education Programming and Support. Aspire has partnered with dozens of Bay Area organizations to design custom programs that empower students to reach greater results in college entrance exams or increase confidence and achievement levels in subjects in which they’ve struggled. While many of our programs typically deal with the SAT, ACT, or high school entrance exams, our specialists provide academic support in all subjects. One-on-One Tutoring. Through a team of tutors stocked with content expertise and emotional intelligence, Aspire provides high-quality academic assistance with individual students and families on a sliding scale fee basis. Aspire’s approach to tutoring as educational mentorship not only leads to greater confidence and improved grades, but also empowers our students to be better prepared for the next phase of their educational careers. Community Reading Buddies. Community Reading Buddies mobilizes Bay Area young adults to mentor younger students in literacy and ignite them with a passion for reading. In turn, the young adults are trained in social-emotional skills that prepare them to become successful, independent community members. A Unique Moment Of 211 non-profit organizations considered, Aspire Education was chosen in 2021 for the first-place Impact 100-East Bay award. In 2022, we were selected from among dozens of applicants for a multiyear grant from the City of Oakland to expand our early literacy programming. Soon after that, we were selected for funding by the Warriors Community Foundation. As an organization, we seek out feedback from a diverse range of sources and take informed risks to improve our impact towards educational equity. We are now looking for new community members to join our Board of Directors to lead this expanding social enterprise. We are especially interested in individuals with experience and interest in development, fundraising, human resources, legal operations, and/or finance. We need the right leaders to help us connect, network, and expand awareness of our services, and you can be a part of creating that change.

These are legacy videos, focusing on the elder experts who have knowledge and expertise that will be lost if not captured on video. It's pretty simple work, and we use google drive for storing the content. You'll then edit the video clips, adding some music over the intro and outro cards. Then add to our youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@whollyh2o541 The actual content is always super fascinating, so that's a great bonus.
