Former Servers & Bartenders Wanted | $20/hr Guaranteed + Paid Training | Full-Time Preferred

Tired of working nights, weekends, and leaving shifts exhausted?

If you've worked in restaurants, bars, cafés, retail, or hospitality—you already have most of the skills needed for this role.

You're used to:

• Talking to strangers all day

• Staying upbeat under pressure

• Working on your feet for long shifts

• Handling rejection without taking it personally

• Creating great experiences for customers

Now imagine using those same skills in a job that offers:

• A consistent hourly wage

• Paid training

• Career growth opportunities

• And work that actually makes a social impact

That’s what Face-to-Face Fundraising at Public Outreach looks like.

What You'll Be Doing

We hire Face-to-Face Fundraisers to represent leading nonprofit organizations across New York City.

Your job is to:

• Have real conversations with people in busy public spaces

• Share important nonprofit campaigns in a clear, engaging way

• Encourage people to become long-term monthly supporters

• Work outdoors with a supportive, energetic team

This is a people-first, conversation-driven role—not a desk job.

Every shift is active, social, and different.

Why Hospitality Workers Do Well Here

Many of our strongest team members come directly from:

• Restaurants

• Bars

• Cafés

• Retail stores

• Customer service roles

Why?

Because this job rewards the same strengths you already have:

• Communication

• Energy

• Resilience

• People skills

• Emotional intelligence

The difference is—you’re not just serving customers anymore.

You're helping support nonprofit organizations working on human rights, environmental protection, poverty relief, and social justice initiatives.

Pay & Benefits

• $20/hour guaranteed (not commission-based)

• Paid training from day one

• Performance bonuses

• Regular pay reviews and advancement opportunities

• Health, dental, and vision benefits (eligible full-time employees)

• Paid time off

• Employee Assistance Program (EAP)

• Promotion from within (many leaders started in this role)

We invest in people who show up and grow with us.

Schedule

We require availability for at least 3 full 7.5-hour shifts per week.

Shifts run:

Monday–Friday
12:30 PM – 8:00 PM

Saturday & Sunday
Daytime shifts with varying start times (typically earlier)

Both weekday and weekend availability are required.

Full-time availability is strongly preferred.

What We’re Looking For

You don’t need fundraising experience.

We’re looking for people who:

• Are comfortable speaking with new people all day

• Have experience in customer-facing roles

• Are reliable, punctual, and team-oriented

• Can stay positive in fast-paced environments

• Enjoy being active rather than sitting at a desk

• Want stable hourly pay and long-term opportunity

If you've worked in hospitality or retail, you're already a strong fit.

What This Role Feels Like

Think:

• Less late-night closing shifts

• Less tipping uncertainty

• Less burnout from unpredictable scheduling

And more:

• Consistent daytime structure

• Supportive team environment

• Clear expectations and training

• A job where communication is your main skill—not just a side requirement

Growth Opportunities

This is not just a stepping-stone job.

We actively promote from within, and many of our team leaders and managers started in this exact role.

Skills you'll build include:

• Communication and persuasion

• Leadership

• Public speaking

• Confidence in high-interaction environments

• Team management
