Creative Media Volunteer
About the role
This initiative began in Caxito, Angola, Afrika in 2009 with the goal of establishing an organization to end poverty by promoting freedom—the ability to pursue eternal health, wealth, and knowledge without the bondage of poverty. The original vision was an international cooperative offering holistic healthcare, economic and spiritual development, and cultural and environmental consciousness.
Continuing that vision, HYU Spiritual Life & Learning Society (HYU) is an independent, self‑supported, Universal Spiritual Temple established to acknowledge the Creator and restore the original ancient spiritual way of life. HYU embraces the Kamatic & Yoruba spiritual systems, the Seven Principles of Nguzo Saba, the Seven Cardinal Virtues of Maat, and the Seven Universal Laws to promote unity within self, family, community, and nation. It provides a sacred space and safe haven for restoring a spiritual foundation through “The Way Study of Self,” ethical teaching and resources for self‑mastery, community for spiritual ceremony and initiation, and cooperative opportunities.
HYU is seeking creative, dependable volunteers interested in gaining hands‑on experience in video production, photography, and video editing working with marketing manager Franchester Williams Media. Volunteers will work behind the scenes on upcoming creative projects, events, interviews, social media content, and productions while building practical media‑production experience.
