Remote Phone Fundraiser - Human Rights & Nonprofit Causes
$19-$24/hour | 40 Hours/Week | Fully Remote
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 for full-time Phone Fundraisers.
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 Reproductive rights 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
You don't need previous fundraising experience.
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.
