First Give Begins Recruitment for Chair of New Campaign Board

 

 

We are excited to announce the recruitment of a Chair for our first ever Campaign Board – a vital leadership role that will help shape First Give’s most ambitious fundraising initiative to date.

Over the past decade, First Give has empowered nearly a quarter of a million young people to take action for the causes they care about. Now, we are preparing to scale our impact and reach even more young people across the UK.

We are developing our first formal fundraising campaign, to enable our bold ambition to inspire one million young people to become changemakers through social action.

To guide this work, we are forming a Campaign Board – and we are seeking an exceptional Chair to lead it. This is a unique opportunity to help shape the campaign from the outset, influence its strategy and direction, and support the recruitment of a dynamic and effective Board.

“This marks an exciting new chapter for First Give,” said Isaac Jones, Director of First Give. “We’ve seen the transformative effect participation in social action can have on young people. This campaign will help us grow that impact, and the Chair of our Campaign Board will be central to making that vision a reality. It’s a chance to shape something from the ground up – and build something with a lasting impact”

The ideal Chair will bring strategic insight, a strong belief in the power of youth, and a network that can help unlock philanthropic support. Together, we can expand our reach, grow our impact, and ensure more young people have the opportunity to make a difference in their communities.

Recruitment is being managed by Peridot Partners. You can find out more about the role and how to apply here:
