BE THE CHANGE YOU WISH TO SEE IN THE WORLD (Dallas)

2009-12-18T20:03:08-06:00

LET YOUR GREATEST GIFT FILL THE WORLD'S GREATEST NEED.
Think about this: we are the only species on this planet without full employment. We have an economy that tells us that it is cheaper to destroy earth in real time than to renew, restore, and sustain it. You can print money to bail out a bank but you can't print life to bail out a planet. At present we are stealing the future, selling it in the present, and calling it gross domestic product. We can just as easily have an economy that is based on healing the future instead of stealing it. We can shift away from a system in which people are induced to buy cheap, plastic junk nobody needs, and towards more sustainable cycles of creation and re-creation.

Working for the earth is not a way to get rich; it is a way to be rich.

Organizational Overview: KIPP, the Knowledge Is Power Program, is a network of 82 college-preparatory charter schools serving more than 20,000 students in under-resourced communities throughout the United States.

Help regulate the marijuana market in Texas (Dallas, TX)

2009-12-15T18:05:11-06:00

ProtectYouth.org, a nonprofit organization based in Dallas, Texas, works to promote evidence-based solutions to reducing the harmful influence of the unregulated marijuana market, the root to many of the drug problems afflicting our youth and communities.

Currently, marijuana is being sold in all the wrong places by all the wrong people. As a result, Texas school districts in every major city across Texas are reporting more kids using marijuana than tobacco cigarettes.

Despite record levels of marijuana arrests (most for simple possession), at least 95 percent of Texas youth under age 18 who use marijuana each year do not come in contact with law enforcement for marijuana possession or sales. Without regulatory controls governing how, where, and by whom marijuana is sold, these youth are far more likely to come in contact with an unscrupulous marijuana dealer selling other harsher drugs than a police officer.

OUR GOALS

- Stop unrestricted youth access.
- Remove growers and sellers from our residential areas and schools.
- Take the profit out of crime.
- Restore respect for the law.

We are currently seeking intern candidates to fulfill the following responsibilities. Internships are unpaid but offer flexible hours and the ability to work remotely.

* Legislative Research � Assists with proofreading Web text and e-mail alerts; monitoring news for marijuana policy-related articles; and assisting in research for our state and federal policies department. This position requires an interest in public policy and all applicants will be required to pass a proofreading test.

* Marketing and Public Relations � Assists with implementing marketing strategies and maintaining social networking sites; researching potential online resources to expand campaign visibility; writing and editing press releases; and assisting in the planning/coordination of meetings and special events.

* Membership Development and Fundraising � Assists with writing persuasive, inspirational appeals. This position requires an ear for language and the ability to write clearly, quickly, and compellingly about complicated issues and programs. The ideal candidate will either be a strong, hands-on manager or excited about learning to become one. Fundraising experience is a plus but not required.

You must be currently enrolled in a 4-year college/university as an undergraduate or graduate student and be able to commit at least 12 hours per week to the internship.
