Are you passionate about non-profit and community organizations that make a difference? Are you interested in launching your non-profit career? Great. Because many non-profit professionals credit their career path to starting on the ground canvassing on behalf of great causes. Here’s how you can do it:

Grassroots Team is seeking a motivated and outgoing individual to join our team as a Canvasser. As a Canvasser, you will be working to canvass door to door and on the street and fundraise on behalf of our amazing non-profit partner, Greenpeace USA. We work together on fighting to end toxic plastic waste, standing up to the fossil fuel industry, and stopping public health crises caused by climate disasters across our country. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys sales, customer service, and engaging people in conversations on important issues. This is a great position for those who are looking for a less traditional work environment, not sitting in a cubicle, but working on their feet, using their voices, and taking action in the community.

This is our compensation package:

• Base Pay: $21.69
• You can earn hourly raises up to 3/hr with promotions up to Field Manager
• Additionally, you can get promoted to our salaried Director positions ranging $55,000 to $70,000
• Bonus System: You can earn anywhere between $25 - $450 in our bonus system per week, and this is uncapped for those who go above and beyond
• Medical, dental, vision, and 401-K retirement plan after 90 days of employment
• Paid time off for sick, vacation, and personal leave and paid Holidays (after 20 shifts)
• Opportunities for rapid advancement to Field Manager, Field Director, Canvass Director with industry leading training and pay at each position
• $450 referral bonus for canvassers

This is what you'll be a part of:

• A meaningful role working with a nonprofit to defend the environment
• Working in the community as a canvasser and engaging people in conversation
• Exciting opportunities to advance rapidly in a quickly growing organization
• An extensive and advanced training program at all levels

You do not need experience in canvassing or fundraising. You will be walking through communities and neighborhoods every day talking to people and engaging them on serious issues and inspiring them to become part of the movement. You must be comfortable fundraising door-to-door in neighborhoods, going up and down hills and stairs multiple times a day in all types of weather year round. You will be raising money, support, and memberships for some of the best nonprofit groups in the world today.

We are actively seeking people who understand the value and meaning of grassroots activism and fundraising, and are willing to work on the ground level and develop their career here. Please do not apply if you have not fully read the job description and do not think you’d be a great fit.
