The U.S. Fund for UNICEF (USF) Campus Initiative National Council was founded in 2008 to strengthen the Campus Initiative. The National Council represents the interests of youth and promotes youth involvement within UNICEF Campus Clubs across the U.S. The Council works closely with USF staff to support UNICEF Campus Clubs and to support individual student volunteers. They also help gather resources, speakers and organize the annual volunteer summit. And most importantly, the Council gathers and analyzes feedback from campus volunteers to make specific recommendations regarding the work of the Campus Initiative.
The USF Campus Initiative National Council will consist of 6 members. Members commit to serving a full-year term from July 2015 to July 2016. After an initial application process, qualified candidates will be asked to conduct a phone interview with USF staff.
Applications are due Friday, April 10th, 2015.
If selected, there is a mandatory training in New York City from August 14-16.
