Stop Street Harassment is looking for several volunteers to help amplify the stories shared on the blog, spread pro-respect messaging, fund-raise for a national study on street harassment, and prepare for Meet Us On the Street: Street Harassment Awareness Week 2013.

Open positions:

1. Social media:

Can you write concise, compelling messages? Do you know how to find the humor in serious issues? Do you have spots of free time throughout the day? SSH needs 2-3 more social media volunteers to help manage the twitter, facebook, tumblr, and youtube accounts. The time commitment will be about two hours/week, generally spread across a few days, lasting at least through the end of December 2012.

Interested? Please email stopstreetharassment AT yahoo.com with a short résumé, three examples of your work (e.g. a link to your social media account), and a few sentences about why you care about ending street harassment.

2. Graphic design:

Messages spread fast online when they’re in the form of a visually interesting graphic. Are you creative and artsy? Can you create compelling, informative and entertaining graphics? Are you interested in volunteering your time and expertise to create a few graphics for the Stop Street Harassment website and social media accounts? The time commitment is flexible and can be project-based, but ideally, it would be 3-4 hours per month.

Please email stopstreetharassment AT yahoo.com with your short résumé,  three examples of your work, and a few sentences about why you care about ending street harassment.

3. Fund-raising:

Do you have experience with nonprofit fundraising and grant writing? Are you willing to volunteer a few hours of your time and share your expertise? The time commitment is flexible, but ideally would be 3-4 hours per month.

Please email stopstreetharassment AT yahoo.com with your short résumé, two examples of fundraising or grant writing experiences you’ve had, and a few sentences about why you care about ending street harassment.

4. Other:

Do you have another talent you’d be willing to volunteer your time doing to help spread awareness about street harassment? Pitch it to me, Holly Kearl, stopstreetharassment AT yahoo.com

Note: You can live anywhere and have any type of background/identity to apply. Applicants just need to be willing to share their talents and care about ending street harassment!
