YOU CAN
HELP A LOT
WITHOUT MONEY
HELP IN-KIND
We can offer many unusual, creative and rewarding ways to help in-kind,
since our Hero*ines are not “organizations required to fulfill their funding proposal promises, with employees with limited decision-making power and skills” but rather multi-skilled “social entrepreneurs” who are independent, dynamic and highly creative, able and very happy to respond to new offers, options and opportunities, who have many able potential allies and beneficiaries in their regional network and love to add-on more and activate further potentials.
You can turn your resources, relations and skills into big impact and memorable experiences. You may be surprised how precious your idling resources AND RELATIONS can be for creative changemakers! Here are examples.
- Produce, offer production price, free adspace, articles, travel or accomodation, invite us on a radio show etc.
- Task staff with services like translation, design or seeing a project through.
- Gift time and space in a holiday apartment, lodge, villa or yacht for a stay or workshop.
- Host a YL Coach in Residence to s/he can scout and activate youth leadership in your region.
Activate your many friends’ and relations’ resources, too … imagine how much you have in your extended network and in theirs! Simply share word of your new passion of helping amazing hero*ines, ask them if they like to join you to gamefully help turn potentials for amazing milestones or workshops into reality and pitch ideas.
ONLY YOU KNOW OF YOUR SECRET POWERS.
Tell us of what you think can be useful – and we see when and where it fits in.
We can’t wait to hear of them.
Hero*ines’ pages list specific options for in-kind help.
Below are general options.
Thank you for your generosity. You see, you may not feel heroic, because you have spent your life on business, growing wealth, fame and a fanbase. Well, you may have done so precisely for this moment that it can move mountains … and if you wield it, it makes you a major ally, changemaker and part of the family
~ because we achieve together!
