Change Corps seeks an experienced fundraiser and external relations director to develop and oversee our fundraising efforts and campaign partnership outreach. Change Corps is a group of experienced organizers who understand that new organizers need a place to start, learn, and make their mark. The Associate Director will be an integral part of our team, driving forward our training program through fundraising and organizational building efforts, increasing Change Corps' effectiveness and visibility, strengthening our partnerships, and advancing our mission.

Change Corps is a field academy for new organizers. We partner with some of the nation's top social change organizations. This spring, organizers are working with Everytown for Gun Safety to advocate for background checks and safer gun laws that will save lives. And this past fall, organizers worked with MoveOn.org to turn out voters to the polls this election and lift up candidates for the Senate who support women's health. Organizers work on 3-5 campaigns during the year, and our activists move around to where they are needed most. We seek an experienced fundraiser who will help raise the money to build our power and program.
