Foster Homes Needed for Rescued Cats/Kittens
Non-profit animal rescue organization is seeking foster homes needed for healthy, rescued, stray cats/kittens who need a place to live and be cared for while awaiting a permanent home. We are looking for people who will give a temporary home to 1 -2 cats/kittens at a time and will show them to prospective adoptive homes on Sunday afternoons. The cats/kittens are wonderful and loving and have been to the vet and are sometimes a little shy and need a place to stay for a couple of weeks while they get love and learn to trust. It is a great opportunity to have a loving and rewarding experience and learn first-hand what it is like to have a pet and if a pet may permanently fit into your life someday. Food and some other necessities are provided to the foster home. When the cats/kittens are shown to adoptive homes on Sundays, the $100.00 adoption fee for each animal will be given to the foster home.
Serious inquiries only, please. If you want to work with a cat and help it get ready for adoption into a forever home, WE NEED YOUR HELP!

New York Philharmonic Telefundraising (Orientation 3/22 Start 3/23) (Upper West Side)
Thank you for your interest in joining the most successful and one of the
highest paying Telefundraising teams for the arts in town.
A couple of things to KEEP IN MIND:
1.) Please read the ENTIRE advert before calling (yes, it is long!).
2.) Please call ONLY during the times that you are asked to call -
unfortunately we are not set up to speak with people except during these
times and we will NOT return messages left on the voice mail or given to
someone over the phone other then to those people we have spoken to already.
OK. Let's get started!
Here is what we do:
- Call potential donors who have attended the NYP. (No Cold Calling) -
we spend about half of our time calling new acquisition. Those callers who
are making their new goals may also call the renewals we get each month as
well as the current members we call for an additional gift (we also get
these monthly)
- We work year round (usually closed a week or two the end of August).
Callers in good standing may take unpaid time off during the year as long as
it is a reasonable amount of time and have given advance notice.
- Most callers regularly earn between $13 - $15 per hour. Top Callers
regularly earn between $15 - $25 per hour
- We Work in Avery Fisher Hall at Lincoln Center
- Free NYP tickets to many of the concerts (after probation period) -
you and a guest may attend a large number of the concerts - anything the NYP
staff can attend.
- Advancement from within - DCM usually hires Campaign Assistants and
Campaign Managers from within.
MINIMUM EXPERIENCE NEEDED:
We mainly are looking for people primarily with 6 months SUCCESSFUL
experience calling on either a fundraising campaign or 1 year SUCCESSFUL
telemarketing experience calling and selling products.
THOSE WITHOUTH TF OR TM EXPERIENCE: We are happy to speak with candidates
that come from professional jobs (such as stockbrokers, people laid off) who
have experience in a professional SALES setting. We will speak with people
with retail experience if you retail experience was COMMISSION based, not
hourly based. We will also speak with candidates that have in-person fundraising experience. If your only phone experience is survey, proxies, or mortgage work, this is not enough exsperience.
CANDIDATES WITH TF EXPERIENCE WILL BE GIVEN THE HIGHEST PRIORITY.
SCHEDULE:
We call 7 days a week, Sunday through Saturday.
SUNDAYS
Currently 5:00 - 9:00
WEEKDAY DAYS (M - F)
The day shift runs mostly 12:30 - 5:00 but sometimes 9:00 - 1:30. These day shifts are variable. A candidate needs to be available a few days of the week for anytime between 9:00 - 5:00

All candidates must regularly be available either Saturday or Sunday or both
A minimum of three nights M - F
A couple of the days (M - F 9 - 5 - though will usually be only 1 shift)
Must be available 6 days of the week.
The Minimum number shifts is 6 calling shifts - generally speaking this
means you need to be AVAILABLE at least 8 of the shifts offered for the
week.
[Please note - available does not mean will have to work all those shifts - we simply need choices to move people
around. We do our best to give people their top choices - based upon the needs of the room.
CANDIDATES WHO ARE INTERESTED IN WORKING 30 - 35 HOURS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE (WHEN UP TO SPEED) WILL BE GIVEN PREFERENCE.
Those callers who have gotten past their probation period (usually 3 weeks)
and are meeting all of their goals (brining in a minimum of $250 per shift
for the Philharmonic in received revenue may increase to up to 30.5 hours per
week.
Okay. If you meet the experience required and the availability
requirements, keep reading.

Of course you have to be articulate to be able to express the MISSION of the
New York Philharmonic. Of course, you are provided with scripting. You
must also be open to being coached to help you improve and be the most
successful caller you can be. If you have a thin skin that does not take
"criticism" well, do not do this job. There is a good deal of detailed
paperwork. It is not rocket science by any means and you have plenty of
cribsheets to help you a long, but if you get overwhelmed by detail work,
this is not the job for you.

GREENPEACE IS HIRING FIELD ORGANIZERS-apply today!
You: 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.
Us: 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.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
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.
Specific responsibilities include:
- Recruit, train, and develop volunteers into strong grassroots activists
- Build lasting relationships with a variety of strategic allies
- Plan and execute education and outreach events
- Generate media coverage on Greenpeace issues
- Build relationships with elected officials to ensure long-term action
- Implement campaign tactics pressuring decision makers to become champions on key issues
- Quickly develop knowledge of Greenpeace issues
- Other responsibilities as required by the Field Organizing Director
QUALIFICATIONS:
- At least one year of grassroots organizing experience
- Able to inspire a diverse group of people
- Strong communication skills - written and oral
- Critical thinking and time-management skills
- Able to keep a level head in a fast-paced campaign environment
- Commitment to grassroots organizing and non-violent direct action as a means of effecting change
Start Date: 6/7/10
Deadline: Preferred deadline March 5, 2010, final deadline April 9, 2010
Nationwide positions available. Locations: Columbus, OH; New York City, NY; Miami, FL; Austin, TX; likely Atlanta, GA or Boston, MA. BA/BS Degree or equivalent experience preferred.

Part Time Community Developer (Downtown)
Job Context
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:
“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.”
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.
The Volunteer Development Department at AFS-USA operates within the context of four core principles:
1. AFS-USA will be an organization which seeks, tracks, and maintains enduring relationships with all its supporters.
