You Can Help Kenya Right Now..

admin — Tue, 06 Mar 2012 04:52:32 +0000

Hello!

I’m requesting two things from you: 5 minutes of your undivided attention and a contribution equal to less than a tank of gas(half a tank, nowadays!), which will help to decide the future of Rebecca Hope, masters graduate of International Non-Governmental Organizations, Regents College, London.

The problem is this: unless you (a Westerner) have 10 solid years of NGO work history or are a Kenyan citizen, your chances of being hired by an NGO in Kenya that offers a salary are slim to none. Although some people believe charity work is an easy niche to find yourself in – reality indicates otherwise. Speaking to USAID director, Dwaine Lee, she has learned that the junior level person at USAID in Nairobi has 10 years of experience and a PhD. Helping others is not easy.

She has been advised by local recruitment agencies that the only way to become more employable is to obtain a Kenyan Work Permit . She has been blessed with a guarantee for employment from Harriet at Summit Recruitment once she gets the permit.

She has demonstrated through thought, word and action that she can persevere on sheer will, even when her age ( only 26) and political barriers are stacked against her.
If 75 people can donate $35 by March 18, She can have her work permit processed within one week. Your support will provide the opportunity for Rebecca to stay there and continue the humanitarian work she has started.
