Project Description

Looking for a rewarding way to share your grant writing and fundraising skills with others? A higher education institute in Kosovo invites you to join their efforts positioning local nonprofits for success.

With increasing competition for international donor support, institutions in Kosovo need expert guidance on developing effective fundraising strategies and aligning with European standards. It’s critical for local staff to develop fundraising skills to secure sustainable backing and build long-term resilience as Kosovo continues toward European integration for enhanced credibility, governance, and access to funding opportunities.

As a Fundraising Strategist, you will work closely with the staff to design and implement comprehensive strategies for securing international funding, enhancing donor engagement, and building sustainable financial models. Your daily work and community engagement will enhance intercultural understanding between Kosovars and Americans.

Required Skills

Competitive candidates will have one or more of the following criteria:

Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree in Business, Economics, Management or other relevant field
OR
5 or more years of expertise working in an NGO or a donor-driven organization
OR
Strong organizational and communications skills
OR
Specialized expertise in prospect/donor identification, grant writing for the non-profit or international development sectors
OR
Experience in training specific to grant writing, fundraising and proposal development

Job Highlights

Be the first Volunteer to support the institute and nurture a lasting partnership with the Peace Corps.

Create lasting relationships with colleagues and community members.

Training

After a one-week orientation on topics such as health and safety, you will move to an urban community where you will work with the partner and your community to assess the local needs and develop a work plan in line with their established goals.

Peace Corps/Kosovo will equip you with Albanian or Serbian language resources and you may work with a local tutor who can help you build basic language skills to connect with the community.
