Event Marketing Assistant - Entry Level
📍 Full-Time | Hands-On Fundraising Experience | Community Impact | Local Events & Campaigns
Are you passionate about community service and eager to build a career in nonprofit marketing and public engagement — not traditional event planning? We’re seeking a dedicated, people-focused individual to join our cause-driven outreach team as an Event Marketing Assistant.
This is not a role in wedding, banquet, or private event coordination. Instead, you’ll gain hands-on experience in grassroots fundraising, cause-based campaigns, and live public outreach — where your work directly impacts community change.
💼 Role Overview:
As an Event Marketing Assistant, you’ll support our direct fundraising team by executing in-person outreach activations across neighborhoods, retail hubs, and community centers. You’ll engage the public, represent nonprofit partners, and mobilize support for critical social causes.
🛠 Key Responsibilities:
Support the development and execution of community-facing marketing and fundraising campaigns
Assist with event setup, coordination, and breakdown at live nonprofit outreach initiatives
Engage directly with the public to raise awareness and inspire action
Collaborate with marketing staff to deliver on-brand, impactful event experiences
Build trust and educate community members on social impact issues
Participate in professional development and leadership training
Uphold compliance and represent the organization professionally
Contribute to team goals and adapt to evolving campaign needs
✅ Qualifications:
Strong verbal communication and a people-first, service-oriented attitude
Excellent organizational and multitasking skills
Comfortable working in fast-paced, public-facing outreach environments (not banquet halls!)
Detail-oriented with good time management and eagerness to learn
Self-starter able to work independently and collaboratively
Experience in customer service, sales, marketing, or fundraising a plus, but not required
Must be 18+ and legally authorized to work in the U.S.
Availability for local travel and occasional weekend shifts
💡 This Role Is Not For You If:
You want to work in wedding planning, private parties, or corporate event logistics
You prefer behind-the-scenes coordination without public interaction
Grassroots, cause-based public outreach isn’t your passion
💡 Ideal Candidate:
Recent graduates, students, or career changers exploring nonprofit marketing or public service
Volunteers, fundraisers, or outreach workers passionate about community impact
Outgoing, organized individuals excited to gain purpose-driven experience
Anyone looking to be part of a mission bigger than themselves
🎁 What We Offer:
Paid, hands-on training in nonprofit outreach, communications, and event marketing
Clear advancement opportunities into team leadership and campaign management
Collaborative, mission-first environment where your impact matters
Regular team-building events, mentorship, and ongoing support
Resume-worthy experience working with recognized national and local causes
