The KeelWorks foundation misson is to get people to work and to drive full inclusion. We are designing and buiding an ambitious program to support change for the persistently unemployed or underemployed. We already help hundreds of unpaid interns practice so they can gain full time paid employment. We have no paid staff, but we would dearly like to change that. We need grant wriing ot help change that.
The person for this job might be retiring or it might be someone intersted in entering this field. For the latter, we can point to courses to support learning for this skill. If you feel up to this challenge, we could use your help.
This position is unpaid, largely asynchronous, and virtual. Participating with the foundation allows participants to add experience to their resume as if it were a job. We help with resumes and portfolios for those desiring this help.
To learn more about our foundation, please visit our web page at https://keelworks.org.
The KeelWorks Foundation needs volunteers interested in grant opportunity identification (research) or grant writing. We have big plans, but tiny funding. We want to change that. We need a volunteer willing to research grant opportunities and/or willing to support grant application or proposal writing.

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.
