Pasquines

Pasquines is a nonprofit news organization, led and run by volunteers, dedicated to ending the insularity between the United States and its territories. Focusing on political, policy, economic, design, and innovation issues, we bring local issues to national attention, and national affairs to local consideration. Our efforts are tenacious, innovative, and objective, to raise awareness by publishing the context of islands.

What is the position?

The Development Assistant Director will assist Pasquines in managing interns and volunteers, as well as fundraising and giving efforts. This position will also help us with grant and sponsor benefit management and logistics. The assistant director will be responsible for assisting in the development and execution of comprehensive, multi-­year fundraising plans to grow individual and corporate giving, and the development a broad sustainable base of funding support for Pasquines.

What are the benefits?

While this position is unpaid, due to our status as a startup nonprofit, we aim to provide a rich learning environment to our volunteers and interns. We focus on providing practical, essential skills to our team, that they can use as the launching pad for their careers. In the process, you will be helping us to promote uncovered stories about the neglected US territories and life in them. You also will be able to work entirely from home, gaining valuable experience that will help you in your career.

What are the position’s duties?

  • Assist with fundraising efforts
  • Help report, research and write best practice guides for fundraising
  • Assist in grant writing, fundraising campaigns, and donor relations
  • Monitor events in designated areas for development of projects
  • Contribute a campaign at least once per month
  • Oversee and edit the work of assigned coordinators

Who are we looking for?

Pasquines is looking for students and recent graduates who wish to gain experience in the field of fundraising, business development, donor relations, and management.

Where do I apply?

You must submit your application on Indeed, with a cover letter explaining your interest and qualifications in the position.

Applications on other websites will not be considered.

We prefer candidates that:

  • Have some experience, knowledge and interest in fundraising, grants, and campaigns
  • Have served in nonprofit or student organizations, especially those that do fundraising
  • Have an entrepreneurial and independent streak, and the ability to stay motivated on their own
  • Have concise and clever writing skills
  • Have a demonstrated ability to bring analysis and creative ideas
  • Have a demonstrated ability to be organized and manage teams

What is the compensation?

Pasquines is a non profit news organization run by volunteers, so unfortunately we are unable to offer pay at this time. We can however help you obtain college credit if so desired.

What is the deadline?

ASAP. We accept applicants on a rolling basis, and therefore there is no hard deadline, but we only have one position to fill at this time.
