Fundraiser Manager

 

Sunshine Kids-Musha Vana is looking for a dedicated and skilled Fundraiser Manager who will be responsible for raising money for the charity. The

  • Devise and organise fundraising campaigns, events and door to door collections

 

  • Spot fundraising opportunities and raise awareness of the organisation’s work
