Google is a company that believes deeply in entrepreneurship. And this is a company that believes deeply in the power of information. We don’t think there’s another organization that combines these two things in a more compelling way than Ashoka.
"As a team of five students studying International Relations at Boston University, we wanted to have a meaningful impact while learning about grassroots development in Africa. Ashoka welcomed us into a partnership with their Nigeria field office. We helped plan a resource center for social entrepreneurs, provided advice on an energy audit, and worked directly with an aspiring Ashoka Fellow on his business plan. We forged meaningful relationships and are happy that an organization like Ashoka is successfully supporting grassroots development."

Design Marketing Material for Top Tier Business Leaders in the United States
Virtual and/or On-site -- Arlington, VA, United States
Description of Volunteer Opportunity
The Ashoka Support Network (ASN) is a global community of successful business people who share our belief that entrepreneurs are the primary engine for economic and social development. They engage with Ashoka, committing time and resources to support the work of social entrepreneurs.
ASN members are business entrepreneurs, top executives, investment bankers, venture capitalists, and consultants from Europe, the US, South America, India and beyond, as our network rapidly expands.
ASN would like help designing marketing materials for potential ASN members who are significant leaders in businesses across the United States. The material would include the telling of stories about Ashoka and Ashoka Fellows in new and compelling ways.
The volunteer will work very closely with ASN's director and will have close interactions with business leaders, allowing for direct exposure to top tier business communities in the U.S. There is possibility to expand the volunteer's role and design it for maximum benefit.
If you have marketing experience, are an excellent writer, creative and can commit to a minimum of one to two hours a day to this project, ASN would like to hear from you!
