ORGANIZATION: Unity Bands Inc.

This is a volunteer opportunity with Unity Bands Inc., an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) nonprofit project supporting healthcare heroes and at-risk communities during the pandemic. We are looking for someone organized with a heart for COVID-19 response and healthcare workers, and embracing our core values. This is a fantastic opportunity to learn how a nonprofit project plans and operates to support a community need.

Responsibilities may include but not limited to:

  • Creating forms and automatic routing tools
  • Integrating website solutions with Stripe, contact lists, and calendars
  • Working with Unity Bands leadership to identify application requirements and develop solutions that are easy to use by our audience.
Experience with GoHighLevel and Blue Host recommended but not required. Why are we doing this? The underpaid but essential health care workforce in America comprises nearly 7 million people in low-paid health jobs including health care support workers, direct care workers, and health care service workers. According to Brookings, over 80% of health care support, service, and direct care workers are women and are also disproportionately people of color. Charitable dollars from the community typically wane within the initial three to six months after a disaster ( issuelab.org). In the case of COVID-19, media attention has shifted to other topics. Spreading awareness about the challenges healthcare workers are facing and the community support are two ways Unity Bands can help right now based on a recent survey conducted. "Continue supporting us. Just the little things that bring a smile and can make things better," said one healthcare worker.

Mission Statement

Support low-income health care workers and providing credible COVID-19 information to at risk-communities.

Description

  • 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization
  • The idea for Unity Bands, an all-volunteer, nonprofit project, manifested in March 2020 as stay-at-home orders were enacted across the country and around the world. In December 2020, Unity Bands Founder and President, John Schirrippa, worked with a Brazilian graphics designer to create the memorable, green Unity Bands logo representing the nonprofit’s ethos: hope, fight and unity.
  • Thus far, Unity Bands has sold 2,000 wristbands to individuals and organizations in 13 states and three countries, and donated over $15,000 to five medical facilities across New York, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Alabama. We’ve partnered with multiple organizations and individuals to raise funds through the sale of wristbands, restaurant givebacks, raffles, and sports giveaways.
