KeelWorks is a 501c3 charitiable foundation with a mission to get people to work - especially the economically disadvantaged. We have two active programs and one in development. The KeelWings program supports student trasition to employment. The KeelMate program helps the experienced transition from an unsustaining field to another. The KeelMaster program is our most ambitious project: it will get the most challenged unemployed to gainful employment. The KeelMaster program requires significant software development.

The incumbent in this position coordinates all Foundation messaging, including website, podcasts, and social media activity ensuring they communicate the foundation mission, values, and strategy. This person should have experience thinking strategically. They should have an understanding of brand strategy or be able to learn it. They should have some understanding of media design, as it applies to social media. They need to be good at recruiting, coordinating, facilitating, inspiring, and assigning tasks to a team. They should be patient with volunteers (it's like herding cats). Some experience in project management would be good as well, though it isn't required.

About KeelWorks Foundation

Location:

2398 WEST BEACH RD, OAK HARBOR, WA 98277, US

Mission Statement

To support a better world with better citizens by fostering learning competence, emotional intelligence, and networked intelligence. KeelWorks especially wishes to bring greater participation to the economically disadvantaged across the globe. We are building a system to support upward mobility.

Description

KeelWorks is a 501c3 foundation. Since 2008 hundreds of graduate students and unemployed workers, reached gainful employment while helping KeelWorks build structure for change. We want to end poverty across the world, changing one life at a time. The KeelWings program for recent students and the KeelMate program for transitioning workers apply their learning while gaining experience supporting the KeelMaster program development. This experience reflected in a competent resume - with our guidance - qualifies them as a credible job applicant. The KeelMaster program is designed to support employment for the more challenged unemployed. This program begins with barrier identification and mitigation, assigns participants facilitated teams where they learn core competencies, ending with goal determination. They access training, and while doing so, join paid internships. Mutual support, core competencies, application, and clear and objective progress metrics support measured results. This structure for change will be replicated over and over across the globe. While other programs give the needy fish, we teach teach them to fish.
