The Naturarvet fundraising foundation raises money from the public, businesses and governments to buy and protect old-growth forest - the world's best terrestrial species conservator, carbon store and outdoor destination. With a current turnover of around SEK 10 million, Naturarvet has acquired over 900 hectares of forest since 2004.

Project employment

8 out of 10 Swedes think it is important to protect forests with high natural values (WWF 2018). And it is urgent! Old-growth forests are being felled at a higher rate than they are being protected. Naturarvet has set a 3-year goal to multiply its collection. Today, most of the collection comes from the public and a large and increasing proportion from companies.

Naturarvet wants to strengthen fundraising and also find new ways to reach out with our message, not least the importance of old-growth forests for the climate. The assignment, which is carried out remotely, includes communication, campaigns towards private donors, as well as corporate partnerships and assisting the director.

- Donor service: answer questions via social media, telephone and other channels, manage gift certificates
- Develop materials for campaigns, create and update fundraising maps
- Communication strategy on climate investment: target group, messages, collaborations
