Job Description: Spring Organizing Fellow
About Us: People Power for Florida is a political committee and an IRC 527 political organization that puts power into the People's hands. We promote civic engagement and increase voter participation by organizing volunteers and events across the state. Our multi-class, multi-racial, and multi-generational organizing model emphasizes on the ground voter registration and voter education to build power in our state.
About the Role: Organizing Fellows are at the heart of our work–and you will be in the community registering and engaging voters in this critical election year. Building power in Tampa will be possible through conversations with voters, organizing alongside community organizations and leaders, fostering partnerships, researching event opportunities, leading volunteers, recording voter registration data, and coming up with creative ideas. If you care deeply about defending democracy and putting power in the hands of the people–and thrive in a fast-paced, flexible environment—you will thrive in this role. This role reports to the Organizing Director and the Communications Director and will have the support of volunteers located in Tampa.

Reporting - 10% of Time: Actively participate in a weekly team check-in and one-on-one with the Organizing Director. Report canvassing results on our website. Occasionally participate in one-time projects or internal trainings.
Compensation: $15 per hour when the Spring Organizing Fellow is doing administrative work + not actively collecting voter registration forms (ex. researching events, calling volunteers) and $18 per hour when actively canvassing and attempting to collect voter registration forms.
Requirements:
