YouTube Content Creator (Feel-Good Nonprofit Stories) — Weekly Ongoing Project
We’re looking for a creative YouTube storyteller who loves uplifting content. Our nonprofit organization helps nonprofit leaders develop more future-ready organizations. Now we want to start sharing feel-good stories featuring those types of organizations — the kind that restore your faith in humanity. We’re launching a new series on our YouTube channel and we’re searching for a creator who can help bring these stories to life through engaging on-camera storytelling + simple editing + content repurposing. Example hook format: " This nonprofit helped a single mom with three kids move into permanent housing — and how they did it might surprise you…" This is an opportunity to help build a channel — and shape something meaningful. If you love making hopeful content that leaves people smiling, this could be your place.
