Jobs for Social Change – Start Your Non-Profit Career with the Fund for the Public Interest

Are you a graduating senior? Start your non-profit career with the Fund for the Public Interest! We’re currently hiring graduating seniors to run our grassroots campaign offices across the country as Citizen Outreach Directors.

The Fund for the Public Interest is a national non-profit organization that runs grassroots campaigns for some of the nation’s leading environmental and progressive non-profits. For over 30 years, our organization has enabled over 40 organizations to pass tougher legislation against air pollution, forest clear-cutting, hate crimes, and special interest money in politics, among other issues. 

Current issues we are tackling with Environment America include: working to bring 50,000 new solar roofs to Massachusetts over the next five years; working to ban or end natural gas drilling (i.e. fracking) from states across the country; and protecting Oregon’s Crater Lake National Park from clear cutting by working to get it designated as a federal wilderness area. Recent victories include giving Environment America the public backing necessary to convince the Obama Administration to release the first-ever nation-wide standards for mercury pollution from nuclear power plants.

Citizen Outreach Directors run one of over 60 regional campaign offices across the country and are responsible for organizing membership building and grassroots campaigns for any one of our partner organizations, such as Environment America, the Human Rights Campaign and USPIRG. We’re looking for smart, socially conscious graduating seniors who work well in a team and are eager to make a real impact on some of the most critical issues facing our society. If you are looking for a position that provides real immediate responsibilities and the opportunity to make an immediate impact towards social change, apply today at www.FundJobs.org
