Job description

Animal Welfare Advocate & Fundraiser
Partnering with Humane World for Animals
Threshold Giving is proud to partner with Humane World for Animals (formerly called the Humane Society of the United States and Humane Society International), a global leader in animal protection and one of the largest and most effective animal protection organizations in the world. We tackle the root causes of animal cruelty and suffering to create permanent change for animals everywhere.
As an Animal Welfare Advocate, you'll be the trusted voice in your community-engaging the public to share vital programs, answer questions, and inspire support for the biggest fights to protect animals.
Your Role as a Face-to-Face Fundraiser
You'll help grow our community of Humane Heroes-monthly recurring donors whose support powers lifesaving work. Through personal conversations on busy streets, at events, retail locations, and in neighborhoods, you'll highlight urgent issues and show how everyone can take action to end cruelty and build a more humane world where humans and animals live in harmony. Face-to-face fundraising allows real-time engagement, builds understanding, and drives meaningful, lasting progress.
What We Offer
  • Competitive base pay ($20-$25/hour depending on market) + uncapped bonus opportunities
  • Part-time (3+ days/week) and full-time positions available
  • Comprehensive training, professional development, and career growth opportunities
  • Supportive team environment with benefits (including counseling, legal/financial services, and insurance after 90 days in qualifying roles)
  • Year-round work-not seasonal-making a real difference every day
Key Responsibilities
  • Engage the public with passion and professionalism while representing Threshold Giving and Humane World for Animals
  • Share impactful stories and initiatives to recruit new Humane Heroes
  • Meet goals while maintaining accurate records and a positive presence
Qualifications
  • Genuine passion for animal welfare and creating positive change
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
  • Comfortable working outdoors and interacting with the public daily
  • Reliable and self-motivated; prior sales/fundraising experience is a plus but not required
Locations
Opportunities in Denver, CO; Jacksonville/St. Augustine, FL; Orlando, FL; St. Petersburg/Tampa, FL; Portland, OR and other markets.
Threshold Giving is a proud equal-opportunity employer welcoming candidates from all backgrounds. Wear the Humane World for Animals brand with pride and become part of a movement that's making tangible, bold progress and real, permanent change for all animals.
Ready to help drive change with compassion and expertise?
Apply now to join Threshold Giving in partnership with Humane World for Animals. Help us create a brighter, more humane future-one conversation at a time!
