Renate's new job

Starting today Renate has begun a volunteer assignment with VSO Uganda. She has accepted the challenge of supporting the VSO Uganda team in developing a donor relationship strategy. To start with Renate will be doing detective work to find out who are the key donors in Uganda and whether or not they have priorities that might coincide with the priorities of VSO Uganda. Once the promising key donors have been identified Renate will be working with members of the VSO staff team to develop a plan for contacting likely looking donors to explore potential for partnership working.

Renate will be working from home most of the time but will visit the VSO Uganda office (which is on the other side of Kampala from here) a couple of days a week. Initially the assignment is scheduled to last for six weeks. Renate's very pleased and excited by the challenge.

  1. Congrats to Renate not convinced the UK government (currently being called the ConDemNation here)will be one of your donation partners. (If they are you may need to check the small print).
    Really pleased everything still going well, enjoyed the previous post great photo's.
    Love Dick and Gwen

Ian will be working as a volunteer with VSO and he's set a fund raising target of £1,000 to be reached before setting off. Money raised will go to support VSO's most pressing needs - it won't be used to fund Ian's placement.
