Part time jobs with Fund for the Public Interest

Part-Time Jobs Protecting Clean Water!
The Fund for the Public Interest is hiring students to work on a
campaign this fall with Environment New Jersey to protect clean water
and over 4,000 miles of New Jersey's streams from pollution! We're
looking for folks that are hard working, good communicators, and
committed to making positive environmental change.
Apply Here!

This summer, we had a huge victory when the EPA restored Clean Water Act
protections to thousands of waterways across the country. Unfortunately,
the polluting industry and their allies in Congress are doing everything
they can to block the rule before it goes into effect. If polluters get
their way, it would leave 4,000 miles of New Jersey's streams from
pollution!

We need our Senators to stand up for clean water! Senator Booker,
specifically, can play a big role in protecting clean water, and we can
make sure he does that, if we build more public support.
To win this campaign we are hiring students across New Jersey to get out
into communities, and build support for this issue. It's a great way to
gain political experience, get real leadership experience and build your
resume! Flexible part time schedules are available; staff make
$9-14/hr.
