| Organization | Pacific Training Centre For The Blind |
| Position | Fundraiser |
| Impact Statement |
The Pacific Training Centre is committed to empowering its students to achieve independence, employment, equality and first-class citizenship by offering cutting edge blindness skills training based on a positive, proven, world-renowned model. Teachers instill a belief in blind people’s own capabilities and in the limitless possibilities open to them by adopting a non-custodial approach (i.e. it is not about sighted people doing things for blind people; it is about blind people doing things for themselves, and it is about blind teachers working with blind students to increase skills and confidence). |
| Description |
The Pacific Training Centre for the Blind is urgently seeking a volunteer fundraiser to help sustain its essential programs in the community. The Centre provides unique, empowering nonvisual skills training to blind adults—services that are not available elsewhere in this intensity or approach. Without additional funding support, these life-changing programs are at risk. We are looking for someone with experience in fundraising who can assist with donor outreach, community engagement, and developing strategies to increase donations during this critical time. This is a meaningful opportunity to make a direct and lasting impact in a grassroots, blind-led organization that is changing lives. Flexible hours and remote work options are available. If you are ready to help make a difference, we would love to hear from you. Please e-mail Elizabeth at elizabeth@pacifictrainingcentre.ca for more detailed information. Thank you! |
