Do you enjoy being outdoors?
Are you passionate about environmental issues and comfortable
communicating with others?
Ecology Ottawa is seeking self-motivated environmentalists to join our
door-to-door canvass team!
Our outreach canvass raises awareness of our issues on the doorstep,
and raises funds to support our projects and campaigns.
• The hours are 4:15 to 9:15pm weekdays (option for weekend days as well).
• Four or five days per week (20 hours per week) great summer/student job.
• No experience necessary, all training provided.
Challenges:
• It’s all weather and outside, you have to love the hot days and the rain.
• Some people find it hard to deal with rejection – not everyone is as
interested in what we do as you are.
• You need to be reasonably fit – we walk a lot!
Rewards:
• Learn great transferable skills – communication, people skills, fundraising.
• Gain confidence in yourself that can last a lifetime.
• You can make good money and get exercise instead of being stuck in
an office all summer. Please send your resume to:
