In just 1 hour\/week, our volunteers create a safe, authentic space for their matched learners to break the language barrier, discover a new culture, benefit from academic or professional mentorship, and receive emotional support.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our simple model has an incredible impact. 99% of our Ukrainian learners improve their English, 79% form lasting friendships, and 42% of those who are seeking professional growth get new jobs, promotions, or salary increases within a year. Volunteers also reap major benefits from the experience, discovering Ukrainian culture, making Ukrainian friends, and becoming steadfast supporters of Ukraine. 66% of volunteers support Ukraine in other ways as a result of volunteering with us.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the future, we aim to connect over a million Ukrainians with English speakers in the US and worldwide, forging supportive, authentic relationships, building a foundation of English fluency, and opening doors to academic and professional opportunities. Taken together, a million incremental improvements in participants\u2019 lives will catalyze economic and social development at a national scale.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>BOARD MEMBER RESPONSIBILITIES\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Leverage business networks in Ukraine to secure corporate sponsorships and funding for ENGin\u2019s programs.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Facilitate introductions to key organisations in Ukraine that may be interested in ENGin as an opportunity for their employees or members.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Advocate for ENGin\u2019s mission within the business community to expand its reach and impact.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Provide strategic guidance on scaling partnerships and enhancing sustainability.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Actively engage in board discussions of a U.S. based non-profit with global reach and contribute to fundraising and growth initiatives.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ideal candidate is:<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Deeply connected in Ukraine\u2019s business and corporate sectors<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Passionate about Ukrainian education and integration into the global community.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Track record of securing funding or partnerships for nonprofits or educational initiatives<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Willing to actively engage and open doors to key stakeholders.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Please contact Maria Leistner (<\/span><a href=\"mailto:mleistner@enginprogram.org\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">mleistner@enginprogram.org<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) with questions or to express your interest! <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ENGin is a grassroots nonprofit that has developed an innovative, highly scalable online program combining skill-building and mentorship for Ukrainians to promote social mobility and economic growth.
