Associate Designer - Fundraising & Digital Marketing

At Interactive Strategies, we collaborate with mission-driven organizations like the American Lung Association, American Kidney Fund, Rainforest Trust, and Special Olympics—to design digital experiences that spark action and make a difference. These aren’t just projects; they’re opportunities to amplify voices, share powerful stories, and create real-world impact. As an Associate Digital Designer, you’ll play a hands-on role in shaping how these causes connect with their audiences. Whether you’re crafting bold social media campaigns or producing motion graphics that bring a message to life, your work will help organizations stand out and inspire change. You’ll be part of a thoughtful, collaborative team that values great design and great causes just as much. What You’ll Do Social Media Design: Craft bold, on-brand visuals for social campaigns, paid ads, and social-first storytelling. Your designs will drive engagement and boost visibility for meaningful causes. Email Design: Develop eye-catching email templates and campaign assets that don't just look good, but also drive clicks and conversions. You'll help push the boundaries of what's possible in email design. Animation & Video Content: Create dynamic motion graphics and video content that enhance client messaging and help clients stand out in a crowded digital landscape. Collaboration: Partner with senior designers, strategists, project managers, and clients to ensure creative outputs are aligned, impactful, and polished.
