Summary

A seasoned nonprofit professional with 4 years of experience in the nonprofit sector, I possess the skills and knowledge necessary to make a significant contribution to Razom for Ukraine. In my previous role, I successfully coordinated a financial assistance project for IDPs in Ukraine in partnership with UNHCR, and as a fundraiser, I raised over $100,000 and built strong partnerships with key stakeholders. I also have experience in organizing events that resonate with target audiences and in using data to evaluate program effectiveness.

I am deeply motivated by Razom's mission for Ukraine. I believe that my skills, experience, and passion for this cause make me an ideal candidate for the position of Development Coordinator. I am confident that I can make a significant contribution to Razom's success and look forward to discussing how I can use my abilities to achieve your goals.
