Dear History students, See below for potential employment opportunities with Amnesty International. The ad says that "good communicators" would make excellent candidates-- so this is a chance for you to put to use all that practice you've had in writing papers over the years! Best, Prof. Allen ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Toby Buckle <TBuckle@aiusa.org> Date: Wed, May 24, 2017 at 4:43 PM Subject: Job Opportunities for Students with Amnesty International To: "joel.allen@qc.cuny.edu" <joel.allen@qc.cuny.edu> Dear Professor Allen, Joel - Chair, I am reaching out to you because you may have students who are graduating (or on break) who would be interested in campaigning positions with Amnesty International USA. Last year we had great success in working with educators to help New York students start their careers in the non-profit world. Now more than ever we need to grow our staff, and our movement, to meet the urgent human rights challenges we face today. Students who are good communicators, want to make a positive impact, and are reliable workers would make excellent candidates. I would greatly appreciate it if you could share the opportunity described below with your classes. I am more than happy to answer any questions you may have. Many Thanks, Toby Buckle tbuckle@aiusa.org Regional Coordinator, AIUSA 34 W 36th street, 4th Fl ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------- **Campaign Outreach Positions with Amnesty International USA** Amnesty International is looking to hire full time entry level staff to campaign on issues such as opposing President Trump’s Muslim ban, confronting police brutality, and aiding Syrian refugees.
