One of the most impactful ways to give back with Give A Mile is to become a Flight Hero, but there are other volunteer positions available as required.
With operations in Canada and the US, all volunteer positions at Give A Mile are remote.
Preference is given to candidates with grant writing experience, although it’s not a strict requirement. Applicants should possess strong writing and communication skills, vital for crafting compelling grant proposals and effectively conveying the mission of the organization. Additionally, the ideal candidate is someone who is comfortable initiating cold calls and engaging in follow-up communications with potential grant organizations, demonstrating a proactive approach to securing funding.
Moreover, strong organizational skills are essential for managing the various aspects of grant writing, from research and application to tracking deadlines and maintaining correspondence with grant-making entities. Proficiency in Microsoft Word and Excel is also required, as these tools are frequently used for document preparation and data management, ensuring that proposals are well-organized and supported by accurate information.
Give A Mile is a registered charity in both Canada and the US. Our mission is to provide flights for people at end-of-life to connect with their loved ones for a final goodbye.
