Remote Phone Fundraiser - Nonprofit Organizations

Remote Phone Fundraiser - Nonprofit Organizations$19-$24/hour | Fully Remote | CanadaTurn Conversations Into ActionAre you someone who can talk to almost anyone, tell a great story and get genuinely excited about something you care about? Public Outreach is hiring Remote Phone Fundraisers to represent nonprofit organizations working on important humanitarian, environmental and social-impact causes. This is a fundraising job that happens to be remote - not a casual work-from-home position. You'll spend your shifts actively speaking with nonprofit supporters, building connections, asking for monthly donations and working toward clear fundraising goals. This isn't cold calling, and it isn't commission-only sales. You'll speak with people who have already interacted with our nonprofit partners - whether they've signed a petition, donated, subscribed to updates or otherwise shown an interest in the cause. What You'll DoYou'll: Speak with nonprofit supporters across CanadaHave meaningful conversations about social, environmental and humanitarian issues Tell stories and explain why a cause matters Build trust and connection using your voice Ask supporters to become long-term monthly donors Respond thoughtfully to questions, concerns and rejection Work toward clear fundraising goals Participate in regular coaching, workshops and feedback Continuously develop your communication and fundraising skills This Is a Performance Role Fundraising isn't always easy. You'll hear "no" much more often than "yes."The people who thrive here are resilient communicators who can stay warm, confident and enthusiastic even after a difficult conversation. We use ethical, respectful fundraising practices. We're not looking for aggressive sales tactics. We're looking for people who can genuinely connect with others and make a compelling case for something they believe in. Before You Apply - Check Your Technology Because you'll be making real-time fundraising calls from home, your setup is essential. You must have: A desktop or laptop running Windows 11 or newer Reliable high-speed internet with at least 50 Mbps download / 30 Mbps upload A wired headset with microphone A private, quiet workspace where you can take calls without interruption A reliable internet connection - wired Ethernet is strongly preferred Basic technical confidence and the ability to troubleshoot simple issues independently MacBooks are unfortunately not compatible with our calling system. You'll complete a technology check during the hiring process, including an internet speed and voice connection test. If you don't currently have access to a Windows 11+ computer and reliable high-speed internet, this role won't be the right fit. You Might Be a Great Fit If...You don't need previous fundraising experience. Experience in communications, advocacy, theatre, performing arts, education, hospitality, customer service, public speaking, sales or community work can translate especially well. What matters most is that you: Are a confident and engaging communicator Can tell a story and make someone care about itEnjoy talking with different kinds of people Can persuade someone without being pushy Care about social, environmental or humanitarian issues Are comfortable hearing "no" and moving forward Are motivated by goals Take coaching well Can work independently and reliably from home Your Voice Matters HereUnlike face-to-face fundraising, you can't rely on body language or a handshake. Your voice is your tool. Strong phone fundraisers communicate warmth, trust, confidence, humour, urgency and passion through conversation alone. As part of our application process, we'll ask you to submit a short voice or video introduction. No professional recording is required - we simply want to hear how you communicate.
