Freelance Fundraisers Wanted For Exiled Journalists Network

by EJN Office

The Exiled Journalists’ Network (EJN) is a groundbreaking organisation set up to help journalists who have fled to the UK to escape persecution because of their media work.

The 200-member group organised by and for exiled journalists aims to promote press freedom around the world and assist both asylum seeking and refugee journalists. Its patrons included journalists Yasmin Alibhai-Brown, Channel 4’s International editor Lindsey Hilsum, Journalist and Royal African Society Director Richard Dowden, and President of the National Union of Journalists Tim Lezard.

EJN is now seeking freelance fundraisers to help with generating income for this UK organization. These are not salaried positions, but we offer generous financial rewards that are based on amounts of funds raised. We also provide freelancers many benefits that come with knowing such a large and varied body of media people from around the world. If you think you can help us out in this national and international endeavour, please get in touch and we will give you more information about the project.
