These films can be of any length and there are multiple ways in which they can be used, such as on your website for fundraising, visually communicating a mission statement, or providing an historical overview. Many organizations are finding these films indispensable, providing an easy and accessible method for communication in our global web-based culture. In addition to the web, other means of distribution can be discussed and it can become part of a larger package that you can send out to perspective sponsors. I have worked with numerous clients to produce interesting and aesthetically pleasing films within the parameters of varying budgets.

<div style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial,sans-serif;">
<p><b>You:</b> A passionate grassroots organizer who is ready to do what it takes to solve some of the world’s worst environmental problems and to hold corporations and the government accountable. You want to make elected officials pay attention to the people they represent instead of powerful corporate interests and hold corporations accountable to their environmental crimes.</p>
<p><b>Us:</b> Greenpeace was founded in 1971 by a small group of activists standing up to nuclear testing off the Alaskan Coast. These daring few effectively won a total ban on nuclear testing and launched Greenpeace’s legacy of “bearing witness” to environmental abuse. We continue to use non-violent direct action, creative confrontation, and grassroots organizing to build solutions to global warming, toxic pollution, the threat of nuclear energy expansion, and destruction of our ancient forests and oceans. Today, Greenpeace has 2.5 million members in 40 countries, and continues to lead the way to a clean and peaceful planet. And we’re hiring field organizers to join the good fight.</p>
<p><b>RESPONSIBILITIES:</b></p>
<p>A Greenpeace Field Organizer is passionate, driven, strategic, and thrives in a fast-paced environment. You can quickly and effectively inspire communities to demand change from grocery chains selling threatened fish species or from shoes companies sourcing their leather from cattle ranchers clearing away tropical forests. You empower people to challenge their elected officials to make local chemical plants safer and to expose the polluter lobbyists who are undermining science-based climate legislation. You are happy wearing a suit to a morning lobby meeting with key allies and a local member of Congress, only to get paint on an old pair of jeans that evening while painting a banner with local volunteers.</p>
<p><i>Specific responsibilities include:</i></p>
<ul>
<li> Recruit, train, and develop volunteers into strong grassroots activists</li>
<li> Build lasting relationships with a variety of strategic allies </li>
<li> Plan and execute education and outreach events</li>
<li> Generate media coverage on Greenpeace issues</li>
<li> Build relationships with elected officials to ensure long-term action </li>
<li> Implement campaign tactics pressuring decision makers to become champions on key issues</li>
<li> Quickly develop knowledge of Greenpeace issues</li>
<li> Other responsibilities as required by the Field Organizing Director</li>
</ul>
<p><b>QUALIFICATIONS:</b></p>
<ul>
<li> At least one year of grassroots organizing experience</li>
<li> Able to inspire a diverse group of people</li>
<li> Strong communication skills - written and oral</li>
<li> Critical thinking and time-management skills</li>
<li> Able to keep a level head in a fast-paced campaign environment</li>
<li> Commitment to grassroots organizing and non-violent direct action as a means of effecting change</li>
</ul>
<p><b>Start Date</b>: 6/7/10</p>
<p><b>Deadline:</b> Preferred deadline March 5, 2010, final deadline April 9, 2010 </p>
<p><b>Nationwide positions available. Locations:</b> Columbus, OH; New York City, NY; Miami, FL; Austin, TX; likely Atlanta, GA or Boston, MA. BA/BS Degree or equivalent experience preferred. Greenpeace encourages all interested persons to apply, regardless of sex, race, religion, national origin, disabilities or sexual orientation.</p>

<br>
Over the past 60 years the AFS network has become one of the largest volunteer based organizations of its kind in the world spanning more than 50 countries. The AFS-USA commitment to volunteering is an important element of our mission statement, which reads:
<br>
<br>
“AFS-USA works toward a more just and peaceful world by providing international and intercultural learning experiences to individuals, families, schools, and communities through a global volunteer partnership.”
<br>
<br>
Volunteerism is deeply embedded in the history and roots of our organization going back to the “volunteer” ambulance drivers who comprised the original American Field Service. Those original volunteers founded AFS Intercultural Programs on the belief that by promoting the exchange of high school students between local communities in the U.S and local communities in other countries, they could foster a worldwide culture of cooperation and understanding among peoples and nations.
<br>
<br>
The Volunteer Development Department at AFS-USA operates within the context of four core principles:
<br>
1. AFS-USA will be an organization which seeks, tracks, and maintains enduring relationships with all its supporters.
<br>
2. AFS-USA will be an organization of continuous learning
<br>
3. AFS-USA will be an innovative volunteer organization
<br>
4. AFS-USA will be a well managed volunteer organization
<br>
<br>
<br>
Community Developer Job Responsibilities
<br>
As a Community Developer you will be responsible for developing and supporting the volunteer structure in a designated area of the United States for AFS-USA. Working in close collaboration with local volunteers, your goal as a Community Developer is to ensure that AFS-USA volunteers receive the support and assistance they need to create and maintain strong sustainable teams capable of implementing AFS-USA programs with quality. In addition, you will work with local volunteers to identify potential growth areas and work to establish new volunteer teams in those areas in order to expand the footprint of AFS-USA. While your specific responsibilities as a Community Developer will be very dependent on the specific characteristics, needs, and potential of the territory to which you are assigned, responsibilities may include:
<br>
<br>
1. Ensuring a process for on-going volunteer/team needs assessment in the identified territory.
<br>
2. Development and implementation of plans for volunteer recruitment, training, and retention to support the identified needs of the existing volunteer structure in the assigned territory as well as plans to expand into undeveloped or underdeveloped areas where potential for growth exits.
<br>
3. Promotion and facilitation of AFS community awareness campaign(s) and/or other community outreach that result in the recruitment of new volunteers and other forms of support for the AFS-USA program.
<br>
4. Establishment and implementation of new volunteer orientation and integration processes within the assigned team, including the implementation of a returnee engagement program.
<br>
5. Organization and facilitation of local volunteer trainings, meetings and events.
<br>
6. Identification of future leadership volunteers and development of leadership succession plans, election processes, etc.
<br>
7. Promotion and facilitation of volunteer recognition efforts including the identification of opportunities to recognize AFS volunteers in the broader community through volunteer award programs outside of AFS.
<br>
8. Development of communication platforms to ensure that all local volunteers have consistent access to information and materials, as well as the means to seek out assistance and contribute their own ideas to the work of the team.
<br>
9. Development of school outreach strategies to assist teams in maintaining strong relations with current schools and identification of new schools with which AFS can work
<br>
10. Remain well-informed about AFS, CSIET, and State Department policies, standards and regulations regarding international student exchange to ensure consistent compliance to all policies, standards, and regulations. Ensure that volunteers in the assigned area are aware of and work to ensure AFS-USA’s compliance in their area.

<br>
<br>
THE KIND OF PERSON WE SEEK:
<br>
<br>
Attitude and aptitude trump training or experience. We do not need you to have prior experience in any particular area, or any particular college degree (or even a degree at all). But we want to know you’ve spent time working hard and learning well. You can be a recent graduate with little work experience, as long as you were not lazy when you were in school.
<br>
<br>
You must be:
<br>
<br>
• Very good at reading, writing, and editing English.
<br>
• A clear thinker and problem solver.
<br>
• Broadly educated – liberal arts degree is a plus.
<br>
• Organized – you will be in charge of keeping things from falling through the cracks.
<br>
• Comfortable around both people and computers.
<br>
• Eager to learn – We don’t expect you to already know how to do what needs to be done. We expect you to be able to figure things out, and ask for help when you can’t.
<br>
• Helpful by nature.
<br>
• Idealistic. Cynicism is not a virtue in our environment.
<br>
<br>
<br>
THE NATURE OF THE WORK:
<br>
<br>
The work is varied.
<br>
<br>
Some tasks are routine. For example, the job starts at 8:00 AM because there are some things that must be done every day between 8 and 9 in the morning, and other tasks begin at 4:00 PM and can usually be completed by 4:30, but might run longer if there are problems.
<br>
<br>
The rest of the work will be project based. You might: organize a conference, maintain a mailing list, collect data, build a website, promote its visibility, write articles submitted by others, research and write reports, and so on. Who knows what will come down the pike?
<br>
<br>
Familiarity with the following will help: WordPress/Blogging, HTML (CSS), MS Office (Excel, Word, Powerpoint), Search Engine Optimization, SQL, and Photoshop. Expertise in everything is unexpected, but a willingness to learn is essential.
<br>
<br>

This is one of our non-commercial ventures. We will want you to help edit, contribute, maintain the site, and manage some of its events and spin-off projects.
<br>
<br>
Here is an example of a project: Five minutes of audio excerpted from a radio interview needs to be combined with a PowerPoint slide show and converted into a YouTube video. We don’t need you to know how to do this before the project comes along, but you are the kind of person we seek if you say, “This is a juicy project,” do a Google search on how to do this, then roll up your sleeves, and by the end of the week you’re proudly showing off your first cut. If you are the kind of person who wants to put this project out for bids, then this isn’t for you.
<br>
<br>
THE PERSON YOU WOULD WORK FOR:
<br>
<br>
You will work as an assistant to Brooke Allen. He has a background in mathematics, finance, and trading and he runs a proprietary trading desk at the U. S. subsidiary of a Canadian Financial Services firm. The firm has about 250 people globally, 50 in the U. S. office, and 6 in Brooke’s group.

<br>
<br>
Currently, benefits include fully employer-paid health and dental insurance, three weeks paid vacation per year, an employer sponsored 401K plan with employer matching contributions, and on-site gym.

<br>
<br>
Take action to protect our environment. Work toward a greener America.
<br>
<br>
Environment America, a federation of state-based environmental groups, is a powerful advocate for the environment and our health. We speak out at the local, state, and national levels to improve the quality of our environment and our lives. We've built a grassroots network across the country that has helped win initiatives on a wide range of environmental issues.
<br>
<br>
For example, in 2007, Environment America played a key role in convincing Congress to make cars go farther on a gallon of gas for the first time since 1975. We also helped increase our use of renewable energy in more than two dozen states. Thanks to our work we’ll use 1.5 million fewer barrels of oil every year starting in 2020, while reducing global warming pollution dramatically.
<br>
<br>
We have protected pristine wilderness areas across the country including winning a campaign to protect the Grand Canyon from toxic mining waste. We helped clean up and protect countless waterways including the Great Lakes, which were threatened by oil company BP and other polluters. And, in 2008, we worked to elect a stronger pro-environment majority in Congress and a president who will take our country in a new direction.

<b>The 2010-2012 Fellowship Program: Job description</b> <br>
Environment America’s Fellowship Program is designed to give you an opportunity to make an immediate impact even as you gain the training and experience you need to become a leader in the environmental movement.<br><br>
Through the Fellowship Program, you will develop basic expertise on critical issues—for example, clean energy—and work to carry out our strategy for winning positive policy change—for example, pushing a new initiative that will bring solar power to thousands of homes and families. One week, you might take part in a coalition meeting, speak at a news conference, lobby lawmakers or their staff, and write an op-ed for publication in the state’s top paper. Another week, you might call a list of civic leaders to seek their endorsements of pending legislation, organize a town hall meeting with a lawmaker, and hold a rally in a key legislator’s home district. <br><br>
In addition to developing policy expertise and lobbying on issues, fellows play an important role in mobilizing and engaging the public on critical issues. You’ll canvass during the year and run citizen outreach canvass offices during each summer of the two-year program. By the end of the program, you will have learned how to raise funds, build a membership, recruit and manage staff and volunteers, work with lawmakers and community leaders, earn media coverage, and run a successful grassroots campaign.
<br>

<b>Qualifications</b>

We are seeking college graduates who care about the environment and who are driven to protect it. We look for strong leadership skills, academic excellence, problem-solving ability, and top-notch written and verbal skills.

<b>Position Availability </b>

<br>
<br>
<b>Training and experience</b>
<br>
Fellows participate in 10-days of paid initial training which includes issue briefings from some of our leading advocates. Additional trainings take place during the rest of the program. Training topics include skills sessions and political strategy development. Trainings feature a mix of lectures, discussions, role-plays, and in-the-field training. Throughout the two years, fellows will also learn organization building skills such as grant-writing, canvassing, recruiting and managing staff, and directing campaigns.
<br>
<br>
<b>Salary and benefits</b>
<br>
YEntry-level staff earn $27,900 in their first year on staff. In addition, full-time staff can opt into health care insurance plan, receive paid holidays and are eligible for paid sick days. Staff is also eligible to join our 401(k) program in their second year.
