Save to Favorites

We are looking for an innovative-driven volunteer to help us in being responsible for writing some federal, state, and local Florida grants for our domestic violence nonprofit.

FFT Helping Others is a grassroots advocacy 501C3 non-profit organization that aids families and individuals in Volusia County and surrounding areas by advocating, providing resources, and counseling services. These sources are tailored for domestic violence, human, sex, and labor trafficking individuals, and this includes spreading awareness of military, domestic violence, child abuse, and teen dating violence, plus tailor-made workshops to spread awareness.

​ WE PROVIDE:

• Referral to housing programs and community aid services assistance for women and children affected & inflicted by the issues of Domestic Violence and trafficking issues

• Continued efforts with other agencies to transport women from all across Volusia County and to partner with state law enforcement and community nonprofits.

• Food aid, action, and support to domestic violence and homeless families.

• Hair Cuts, Pampering Day, book and clothing drives for families in need

• Bookbag & Christmas programs for disparaging communities and those in need.

• Aid to our Latino and minority communities that require advocacy and assistance, especially with translators, social services, and judicial advocacy.

• Aid in hurricane actions and disaster relief actions.

• Education and awareness of human trafficking, Teen Dating Violence, Bullying, Domestic Violence, and other violent issues affect our communities, teens, children, and veterans.

• Help in legislation reform for Domestic Violence.

• Aid in mental health and ensure a better quality of life through mental health assistance.

We are seeking someone to aid us in getting some grants or funding to help us with our mission to help families who need our services. This could be a volunteer position, but it could become permanent later on down the line. We would love to get funding from the Department of Defense or the Department of Justice, but any federal or state grants that assist our nonprofit would be great. Regarding local businesses or corporations, we are looking for companies or corporations that do not need much information into our finances right away since we are starting off.

We look for retired individuals, students looking to intern, or anyone with a business management background or grant writing experience. Since we are looking for federal and state grants, and we have a bill that we want to bring to Congress, getting this started as soon as possible would be great.

What we are looking for:

• Background in business planning or grant writing
• Interns or anyone with a business background or grant writing
• At least a minimum 2 years of experience or
• A student who is currently taking a course with this as a concentration and can go back and forth with questions to a professor that deals with nonprofits
• Time will all be by Zoom, with a minimum of 4-6 hours per week on our project, and ensure that it is tailor-made for nonprofits dealing with domestic violence.
• Someone who can run crowdfunding, fundraising, or logistics in getting local, state, and national businesses or corporations to fund our mission to help victims
• Give some time to meet with the founder via online Google Meet or Zoom.

What can we provide:

• Reference letter or emails with our logo that you have worked with FFT Helping Others
• Volunteer time if you have interned with us
• Recognition if we go for the Volunteer Presidential Award
• Medal or Letter from the US President
• Once we have our grant, we can open an opportunity for you. Or you will be the first considered for a chance to work with us full-time or part-time instead of volunteering with us.

If you have any questions, please contact us so we can interview you and schedule a Zoom meeting to learn about you, your background, and how you can best help FFT Helping Others.

Thank you for considering helping FFT Helping Others.
