Want meaningful work where your personality, communication skills, and interest in important issues actually matter?
Public Outreach is hiring fundraisers to join our NYCteam and represent major nonprofit organizations working on humanitarian aid, human rights, social impact, and support for communities around the world.
This role can be a great fit for students, recent graduates, performers, creatives, hospitality workers, and other strong communicators looking for meaningful work while building skills they can take with them wherever they go.
No fundraising experience is required. We provide paid training, ongoing coaching, and plenty of support while you learn.
What You'll Actually Be DoingThis is face-to-face fundraising - not an office job.
You'll work throughout the city, speaking with members of the public about the nonprofit campaign you're representing and inviting people to support that work by becoming monthly donors.
Depending on the campaign and team, you may work through street fundraising or door-to-door outreach.
A typical day can include:
Starting conversations with people you've never met
Learning about the nonprofit campaign you're representing
Sharing meaningful stories and explaining why the issue matters
Listening, answering questions, and building genuine connections
Asking people directly to become recurring monthly donors
Working alongside a supportive fundraising team
Practicing your approach and receiving regular coaching
Working toward clear fundraising goals
Some people will be excited to talk to you.
Some won't be interested.
You'll hear "no" regularly.
Fundraising takes confidence, resilience, and the ability to reset and try again.
Your hourly wage is guaranteed, but fundraising performance still matters. You'll receive coaching, support, and clear goals to help you improve.

Humanitarian aid
Global poverty and food insecurity
Support for children and families
Human and civil rights
Communities affected by conflict, displacement, and crisis

Other important nonprofit and advocacy work
Campaign assignments can change based on the needs of our nonprofit partners.
