Fundraising, Marketing & BizDev for Social Impact in Ecuador

I really enjoyed the experience as a whole! I loved waking up every morning in the peaceful rural Andes of Ecuador and seeing Chimborazo in the distance. I enjoyed making connections with the interns, volunteers, other associates and employees. I got so much out of living in the heart of the Atandahua community and understanding first-hand the way they live but also the challenges they face - This gave me motivation in my associate role as I understood why the work I was doing was so important. Finally, I was grateful to be able to explore the rest of Ecuador in my free-time and I can't wait to come back to explore the rest later this year.

social enterprise skills is a wonderful skills that students should be exposed to early during their academic pursuit. As a research assistant at the international center at Eastern university university located in Cyprus. My role was to coordinate, manage and grant award to student who excelled in their various social enterprise skills, both in the field of information technology, finance, science and marketing. i would be glad to have the same excellent experience with your organization since i already have above 10 years experience in the co ordination and administration of such programs.

As a “digital nomad”, I have worked remotely and traveled around. But I had a desire to try something different and use my professional skills to help a local organization, while also getting the opportunity to immerse myself in a local community. El Terreno was the perfect spot for volunteering my professional skills. I enjoyed the beautiful settings of Ecuador and meeting new people from around the world who came to intern and volunteer. The team at El Terreno was great to work with and made me feel like a valuable member and contributor. They also had amazing WiFi that I was able to use to work on projects for my remote job during my free time!
