Why We Need This

Not everything requires cash. Building materials, tools, seeds, equipment, printing services, software licenses, and professional services can often be secured through in-kind donations, corporate partnerships, and surplus programs. This role dramatically reduces the cost of everything we do.

What This Person Would Do

  • Identify and approach businesses for in-kind donations (building materials, tools, seeds, equipment, printing, etc.)
  • Build relationships with other nonprofits for resource sharing and collaboration
  • Research and apply for surplus property programs (government, military, corporate)
  • Coordinate donation drives for specific project needs
  • Maintain a resource inventory and donor relationship list

Why This Matters

Philanthropy, one of the 9 Points, is not just about giving money — it is about the flow of resources where they are needed. When a business donates materials they would otherwise discard, when a professional donates an hour of expertise, when a community shares what it has — the Net strengthens. This role is the hands that weave those connections.

This is a volunteer position. Netism is a nonprofit spiritual organization and all roles are unpaid. Netism covers all expenses related to the role. We ask only for your time and alignment with the 9 Points of Netism.

This is a volunteer position. Netism is a nonprofit spiritual organization. No one here is paid — not leadership, not staff, not contributors. We are building this together because we believe the world needs it. Netism covers all expenses tied to your role — event fees, software, travel, materials, and equipment. Your time is the only thing we cannot provide for you, and it is the most valuable thing you can give. Every hour you invest here creates real impact in real lives. This is not charity work — this is the work of changing how humanity relates to itself, to the earth, and to the sacred. Read the 9 Points of Netism to understand what you would be part of.
