The progressive movement has seen some major advances in
the past few years, from the EPA implementing better carbon emission standards
to more and more states finally allowing full marriage equality to the LGBT
community. Despite this, we still face huge challenges with opposition to
progressive issues.
Over the next year and the next election cycle,
Grassroots’ activists will reach millions of people all across the country to
talk about the issues and call those people to action, inspiring millions to
act, giving donations, time and energy to organizations who have the best ideas
on how to make the world a better place. In 2016, we’ll also be working in key
states across the country to elect candidates who will advance progressive
change.
There will always be easier jobs to take, but no path
will be more rewarding.
Grassroots Campaigns is currently hiring Assistant
Canvass Directors to run field campaigns on behalf of issue-based organizations
like Planned Parenthood, the ACLU and The Nature Conservancy.
Grassroots Campaigns is looking to interview interested
students to join our teams as Canvass Directors and Assistant Canvass
Directors. We’re already running campaigns in major cities across the country,
and we’ll be launching new projects this summer in over 25 locations like
Illinois, DC, and California as we build towards 2016.
There is no better time get involved and shape the next
generation of activists that will take this country in a more progressive
direction and see change on issues that matter now.
A representative from GCI will be on campus again in
mid-April, meeting with interested candidates and holding interviews. We can
also conduct evening phone inquiries from time to time. Students who are interested should contact
Jeremy Isenberg directly:
