ABOUT THE POSITION

The Public Interest Network is seeking a Grant Writing Associate to work with network’s advocates, organizers, attorneys, executive directors, and development staff to raise grant funding for a wide array of public interest campaigns and programs.

Over the past 50 years, our mission-driven, results-oriented approach has led to hundreds of victories. In just the past few years, we helped convince California, New Mexico, Washington state, Maine and Virginia to commit to 100% carbon-free energy, and Maryland and Maine to ban the single-use plastic foam products that are polluting our planet. But there's more to do.

In order to achieve these results, the groups in The Public Interest Network need a strong backup staff to provide the resources, guidance and infrastructure it takes to make progress on these issues.
