Programme Delivery Officer - London, United Kingdom - First Give

Description

About First Give
First Give inspires young people to make a difference to the causes they care about.

We do this through working in partnership with secondary schools, providing a fully resourced scheme of work that guides an entire year group of students to engage with local charities and causes and then carry out social action (fundraising, raising awareness, campaigning, volunteering etc) in support of them.

At the end of each programme, a celebratory School Final is held at each school, where groups representing each class deliver presentations about their projects.

The class considered to have engaged the best with the programme secures a First Give grant of £1,000 for their chosen charity.

By the end of the programme, however, the whole year group will have given back meaningfully to their local community.

We currently work in partnership with approximately 200 schools every year across England and Wales.

Our vision is for motivated and equipped young people using their skills to make the lives of others in their community better.

Our values inform what we do at First Give.
