Calling all journalists! WeVote, a nonpartisan nonprofit technology startup building the next generation of voting tech, has an open volunteering position for a Newsletter Writer / Content Developer (2-3+ hours per week) who wants to use their existing skills and learn new skills, while helping strengthen American Democracy. The newsletter writer will be tasked with writing engaging and informative content that shares news, information, goals, and wins for our all-volunteer voter activation nonprofit. We are looking for a writer to join the team who will help draft content that aligns with our mission and values. You will assist with content planning and may also be asked to help with research, interviewing, and writing including writing stories, volunteer profiles, event info, and related news, all designed to build awareness and do a bit of cheerleading. The ideal candidate will have excellent writing and editing skills and experience working with volunteers and/or in a nonprofit setting. This remote role is perfect for journalism students building portfolios or freelance journalists wanting to cover the evolving election landscape.

WeVote is a nonpartisan get-out-the-vote nonprofit startup, and a celebrated Fast Forward nonprofit technology grantee. WeVote is a movement of over 120 passionate volunteers (starting with the founders) who are building open-source mobile technologies that touch and mobilize millions of voters on Election Day.

We have a goal of providing a complete voting experience in 8 minutes, including the download of our app ("WeVote Ballot Guide, @WeVote"). More information is at https://WeVote.US. See Twitter @WeVote. We are a 100% volunteer and remote organization.
What You'll Do:
  • Write for one or both of our newsletters: one is internal for WeVote volunteers, and the other is an external newsletter reaching voters nationwide
  • Cover a wide range of topics, creating news articles for the WeVote Blog. Recent stories we've published have been about voting laws, election security, voting access, Generation Z trends, and the U.S. Supreme Court taking up a legal challenge to a mail-in voting deadline in Illinois
  • Help voters make informed decisions through straightforward, informational reporting
  • Pitch story ideas and work on editor assignments
  • Research and interview sources for volunteer profiles, event coverage, and election-related news
  • Collaborate with editors and team members (includes weekly Tuesday meetings, ~1 hour)
  • Receive bylines and clips for your portfolio

We're Looking For:
  • Current journalism students or recent graduates seeking portfolio-building opportunities
  • Freelance journalists interested in civic engagement and voting rights coverage
  • Strong writing and editing skills with journalism clips to share
  • Experience with WordPress
