The Marijuana Policy Project, the organization that ended marijuana prohibition in Colorado, is hiring a Membership Assistant. This is a full-time, paid internship; it pays $10 per hour, and applicants should be able to commit to working for at least four months (although longer is welcomed). Most MPP interns are recent graduates, although that’s not required.

• You’ll be responsible for a significant portion of MPP’s donor research, using the Internet to track down contact and background information on high-value prospects for our fundraising team.
•  You’ll also be responsible for researching and summarizing news articles on some of MPP’s biggest supporters and donors and providing that information to the appropriate MPP staffer.
•  Other administrative tasks as assigned by the membership coordinators, such as checking MPP’s P.O. Box, assisting with various projects, occasional front desk duties, and some manual labor (such as helping bring in packages).

You should have a meticulous attention to detail and be highly accurate. You should also have strong Internet research skills, the ability to work independently, and a professional demeanor. Candidates should expect a fast-paced, professional environment where excellence is valued.
