About This Role

This is a hands-on volunteer role focused on grassroots sales, event promotion, and community engagement for a charity event in Addis Ababa. It suits fresh graduates or students looking to build practical marketing and fundraising experience while supporting a social mission. Working with Mary Joy Ethiopia, you’ll gain exposure to real-world resource mobilization in the non-profit sector, which is distinct from corporate sales roles.

What the Requirements Say About This Role

The role does not demand prior experience but seeks individuals who are outgoing, self-motivated, and comfortable approaching the public to sell T‑shirts. The emphasis is on active communication skills and the ability to use personal networks and social media effectively. This implies the employer values enthusiasm and reliability over technical qualifications, making it accessible for entry-level candidates.

How to Approach This Application

Focus your application on examples where you’ve engaged people in a cause or sold an idea—such as organizing a school event or recruiting participants for a club. Emphasize your comfort with face-to-face interaction and your willingness to take initiative without close supervision. Since this is a volunteer role, showing genuine interest in the charity’s mission will set you apart more than formal credentials.
