We are looking for support for our day-to-day operations in the area of public relations (including the social media platforms Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube). We already have a decent reach in various channels, but would like to expand this further through regular and meaningful postings. In this context, the idea of education around animal welfare topics (focus on dogs/cats) is very important to us.
In addition, we are strategically building up our public relations team in order to be able to expand and develop the areas of homepage, press relations, blog, podcasts etc.
In the area of social media, we work with the planning and publishing tool Hootsuite. In coordination with the public relations team, the following tasks should be taken on:
Likewise, we are looking for volunteers who want to get involved in the areas of press relations and homepage. Here, too, we offer you the opportunity to actively participate and contribute ideas.
You are right with us if you:
If you have between 2 and 4 hours a week to spend with us, the work is easy to do, although more is possible if you can spare the time.You can divide your time within the team. You can coordinate with each other and split it up so that it suits everyone. A continuous presence in the social media through this division among each other should be ensured.
It is important to us that you also keep a voluntary promise and fulfill your promised activities, because we rely on it.
We always have prospects who initially want to help us, but then fail to complete their tasks. If you apply to join us, please remember that social media is an operational day-to-day business that exists throughout. We have a team in the public relations department, you can agree on tasks and distribute them. But we still need some reliability as we rely on our external communications, including for fundraising
There are no limits in researching animal welfare issues and creating appropriate posts. What is really important to us - social media is interaction with followers*. If you don't like social media, then this is not the job for you. But maybe in the area of press relations, strategy and control of public relations, homepage design and relaunch project? We have many aspects of our public relations that we want to restructure and rebuild.
The work and coordination in the team is very important for us despite mainly virtual work - we are an association and live this. Therefore we are looking for continuous help - within Corona we had many "flash in the pan" helpers who came and went. We are definitely looking for people who don't just want to "do something for a bit". If you want to volunteer for the animals in your spare time, then you are right with us - we are looking forward to your request!
This project is location independent.
We are a small animal welfare association in the Rhine-Main area that focuses on the protection of and help for cats and dogs in need. We work throughout Germany and with partner organisations in Spain. Our work is based on three main areas of education, spaying/neutering and animal placement/adoption and we work entirely on a voluntary basis.
