10 reasons to work with the Fund:

1. The Fund helps solve big problems such as plastic pollution, threats to wildlife and wild places, toxic contamination, electronic waste and more.

2. Our mission is to build the people power it takes to overcome the powerful opposition standing in the way of solutions that will protect our health, environment and well-being.

3. We’re a nonprofit, and our team of citizen outreach staff generates funding and recruits members for our nonprofit partners at Environment America, PIRG and other groups in The Public Interest Network.

4. We’re the most effective citizen outreach operation in the country. We’ve raised over $700 million, run hundreds of campaigns in all 50 states, and educated and mobilized millions of people on issues ranging from saving our national parks to stopping the misuse of our life-saving antibiotics by factory farming operations.

5. In a time of extreme polarization and information bubbles, our brand of face-to-face outreach has never been more important. Every day, we go into neighborhoods, engage people in conversations about important issues, and give them an opportunity to take meaningful political action.

6. We are looking to hire people who are passionate about making change, excited to learn new skills, and ready to take on a leadership role.

7. As a canvass director, you’re in charge of your own field office, hiring and managing your own team. You will train your team to be excellent communicators, so you can lead them into neighborhoods, knock on doors, talk to people about important issues, ask them for money, and generate the grassroots support it takes to win campaigns.

8. We put our campaigns and getting results first. Social change isn’t easy, and it’s definitely not lucrative. If you want to make a lot of money, or really prize your work-life balance, this might not be for you.

9. We will give you excellent training, and you’ll develop fundraising, staff management, organizing and people skills that will last a lifetime. But if you are just looking for an experience that will help you get to your next job, this may not be the right fit for you.

10. If you share our passion for changing the world, and recognize what a privilege it is to get paid making the positive changes we need, then you should apply today.
