Volunteer Trainer: Proposal Writing, Budgeting & Impact Reporting

Save to Favorites

United Safe Environment Creators (USEC) is a refugee-led community-based organization operating in Kakuma Refugee Camp and Kalobeyei Settlement, Kenya. Our mission is to create a safe, inclusive, and empowered environment for refugees and host community members through four flagship programs: Education, Child Protection, Livelihoods, and Climate Change Resilience.

As part of our organizational growth, we are seeking a skilled volunteer to deliver a remote training aimed at strengthening our team’s capacity in proposal writing, budgeting, documentation, and impact communication. The training will equip staff with practical tools and strategies to develop compelling proposals, create realistic and donor-aligned budgets, maintain strong documentation practices, and effectively communicate the outcomes and impact of our work.

The ideal trainer should have proven experience in fundraising, grant writing, and nonprofit program reporting, particularly within the humanitarian or development context.

While this support can be provided remotely, we are also open and excited to host a volunteer in person in Kakuma/Kalobeyei, should they be interested and available for an immersive experience. (Note: we are not in a position to support volunteers financially during their stay.) We encourage those who can cater for their accommodation, meals, transport, etc.

Expected Outcomes:

• · Enhanced skills in writing clear, structured, and persuasive proposals
• · Improved capacity to develop accurate and donor-compliant budgets
• · Strengthened documentation and reporting practices to support transparency and learning
• · Increased confidence in communicating program impact to donors and stakeholders
• · Clear action steps for applying new knowledge in upcoming funding opportunities
