MoveOn is a diverse and vibrant community of millions of people working together to create progressive change in America. We are an innovative campaigning organization that supports people throughout the country to take action through driving impactful campaigns that influence the behavior of people and institutions, shape the outcomes of elections, and expand the realities of what’s possible. We organize to challenge entrenched power, while pursuing economic, racial, and social justice and a vision of a country in which everyone can thrive.
MoveOn has a particularly important role to play in the Trump era. We are working to defeat Donald Trump and the GOP in 2020 by building a powerful, multiracial, and economic populistmovement that will give voters something to vote for, not just against—and we're also working to defend communities that are on the front lines of Trump and GOP attacks, including immigrants, people of color, the LGBTQ community, and women. In service of that mission, in 2020 and beyond, MoveOn will drive impactful, movement-connected, multichannel, nimble campaigns aimed at impact.
We are looking for a motivated Voter Mobilization and Fundraising Intern to support our work with voter mobilization in a critical election year. The work that you do will also be an important part of how we raise money at MoveOn, influence the national political narrative, build power to defeat Donald Trump in November, and set the agenda for a progressive governing future.
Responsibilities
- Interact directly with online donors and donor prospects through direct 1:1 communications and help inform our work to make that process more efficient and impactful. (This will be about half of your work in this role.)
- Build and maintain relationships with online communities to mobilize their networks to vote.
- Contribute to creative campaigns to build culture of voting amongst high-potential voters
- Perform light data collection and management of vote tripling pledges
Required skills and experience
- Experience with and interest in progressive activism, advocacy, organizing, or politics.
- Strong equity analysis and demonstrated understanding, commitment to, and prioritization of racial and social justice, and experience working effectively with different constituencies.
- Self-directedness—MoveOn is a virtual office, and while you will interact with your colleagues constantly, you will be driving your own workflow and output. Excellent personal organization and time management skills are key.
- Ability to learn MoveOn's suite of organizing technology (Facebook groups, Spoke, ActionKit, and Slack).
- Keen attention to detail and highly dependable work ethic.
- Strong writing skills, including precise grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
- Ability to work well under pressure within a fast-paced, high-performing team.
