About Proximity Foundation

Proximity Foundation runs structured coding education programs for young people aged 14-18 at Community Care Institutions (CCIs). Using a computer-based LMS curriculum covering HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and SQL, we pair students with volunteer mentors in cohort-based sessions designed to build real technical skills and lasting confidence.

We are scaling from the first cohort to many cohorts within Mumbai and building the operational team that will carry this program forward. Every role in Proximity Foundation is a direct investment in the young people we serve.

ROLE FOCUS

Owns the end-to-end Fundraising & Partnership Tracks together — from identifying the right donor and CSR organizations to building and closing those relationships.

  • Manage and support the Market Research and Partnership Outreach sub-roles
  • Report partnership pipeline progress and outcomes to the Operations Manager

WHAT A TYPICAL WEEK LOOKS LIKE

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
