Bulgaria: Retail Expert
ORGANIZATION: GlobalGiving
Please visit the new page to apply.
We need someone who can advice us regarding the art of food retail and how to operate more effectively. Our volunteer will assess what we are doing now and advise the team how to improve and create more opportunities to increase customer flow and income. Phoenix Cafe and Bakery is the child of the charity Phoenix Inspire. Phoenix Cafe and Bakery is a social enterprise with the express desire of training and developing disadvantaged adults in the arts of bakery, patisserie and customer service with the intention that they progress into employment and a meaningful life thereafter. Feedback from customers and supporters applaud the concept and our products but we need more customers and income to firmly establish sustainability. We lack true retail knowledge and experience.
Skills Required:
Knowledge of food retail environment very important - even better if it is with a pastry / baker bias

Mission Statement
Build an efficient, open, thriving marketplace that connects people who have community and world-changing ideas with people who can support them.
Description
GlobalGiving was founded by two former World Bank executives who decided to use the Internet to create a highly efficient marketplace. The GlobalGiving platform enables more funding to reach projects throughout the globe, and, at the same time, provides a more transparent, engaging way for donors to give.
Because we enable donors to give directly to projects, they know exactly where their money is going. Donors can see progress updates on most projects as funding is received and goals are met.
Donations made through GlobalGiving are higher impact because:
- Money is going directly to a well-defined project versus supporting general operating expenses
- Projects on globalgiving.com have exposure to thousands of donors, enabling us to aggregate multiple sources of funding for each project
- Many projects on globalgiving.com are located in the developing world where a little money goes a long way
