Partnership with The Boo Charity

"Ella’s work is absolutely amazing - we couldn’t do it without her! I’m so impressed with all she does for Boo and the results she achieves; she’s a real inspiration to the team."

— Russell Hicks, Founder of The Boo Charity

The Boo Charity is a low-admin, impact-driven organisation funding education, empowerment, and employment projects in Kenya.

This role extends beyond traditional marketing - combining strategy, storytelling, and hands-on involvement. Much of the work is voluntary, including travelling to Kenya and working closely with project leaders to ensure communications authentically reflect the impact on the ground.

With my background in anthropology, this work is deeply rooted in visual storytelling - sharing real stories, creating connection, and communicating the tangible difference funding makes.

The focus is on communicating impact with clarity and integrity — ensuring supporters understand not just what the charity does, but why it matters.

Content and campaigns are designed to:

  • Build trust and transparency

  • Encourage ongoing support and donations

  • Showcase the real outcomes of funding

  • Create a strong emotional connection through storytelling

All activity aligns closely with the charity’s core mission of creating opportunity and enabling long-term change.

Scope of Work

This role involves close collaboration at every level of the charity, including:

  • Attending monthly trustee meetings to align on UK activity

  • Maintaining regular communication with project leaders in Kenya

  • Ensuring all communications are accurate, respectful, and representative of the communities involved

Take a look at my work

Through a combination of strategic communication and authentic storytelling, this work has helped strengthen the charity’s visibility, deepen supporter engagement, and communicate impact in a meaningful and human way.

More than marketing, this is about creating connection - using storytelling to give visibility to opportunity, and to support lasting, positive change.
