Use Your Voice for Human Rights

Can you take an issue you care about and make someone else understand why it matters?

Public Outreach is building a new U.S. remote fundraising team, and we're looking forfull-time Phone Fundraisers in Colorado.

You'll speak with people who have already shown an interest in nonprofit and human-rights causes and turn that interest into meaningful conversations and long-term monthly support.

Your initial fundraising work may involve issues such as:

• Refugee and migrant rights
• Civil liberties and human rights
• Discrimination and equality
• Communities affected by conflict or displacement
• Humanitarian aid
• Support for children and families

Campaign assignments can change, so future work may involve different nonprofit causes.

This is not cold calling. Your $19 starting wage is guaranteed - this is not commission-only sales.

What You’ll Do

You'll:

• Speak with nonprofit supporters by phone
• Discuss serious social and human-rights issues with empathy and confidence
• Ask questions and build genuine rapport
• Turn complex issues into understandable, compelling stories
• Explain how nonprofit organizations are taking action
• Ask supporters to become long-term monthly donors
• Respond thoughtfully to questions, concerns and objections
• Work toward clear fundraising goals
• Participate in ongoing coaching, workshops and feedback

Fundraising Is Part Advocacy, Part Storytelling and Part Ask

But you do need to be comfortable talking about important issues and directly asking someone to support the work financially.

Strong fundraisers can communicate conviction without becoming aggressive.

They listen.

They adapt.

They can have a difficult conversation, hear "no" and approach the next call with the same energy.

We provide paid training and ongoing coaching to help you develop those skills.

This Is a Full-Time Position

We're currently building a small, reliable U.S. team.

You must be able to consistently commit to 40 hours per week.

Fundraising shifts take place Monday-Friday and are scheduled within our calling windows.

This isn't intended as casual remote work or a side job. We're looking for people who want to develop professionally, become strong fundraisers and contribute consistently to the team.

Before You Apply – Check Your Technology

Working remotely requires the right setup.

You must have:

• A desktop or laptop running Windows 11 or newer
• Reliable high-speed internet with at least 50 Mbps download / 30 Mbps upload
• Wired headset with microphone
• Private, quiet workspace
• Reliable internet – wired Ethernet strongly preferred
• Basic technical confidence and ability to troubleshoot simple issues

MacBooks are not compatible with our calling system.

You’ll complete a technology check during the hiring process, including an internet speed and voice connection test.

If you don't currently have the required computer and internet setup, you won't be able to move forward.

You Might Be a Great Fit If…

You:

• Are a confident and engaging communicator
• Care about human rights, humanitarian issues or social impact
• Can talk about serious subjects with empathy and maturity
• Can tell a story that keeps someone's attention
• Are comfortable making a direct fundraising ask
• Can persuade without pressuring
• Are resilient when you hear "no"
• Like working toward measurable goals

You won't have body language or a handshake to help build a connection.

Strong phone fundraisers use their voice to communicate warmth, confidence, urgency, empathy and conviction.

As part of the application process, we'll ask you to submit a short voice or video introduction.

No professional recording is required. We want to hear who you are, how you communicate and what you're passionate about.
