Our Organization
The Fund for the Public Interest is a non-profit group started in 1982. Our mission is to build support for the nations top progressive non-profit groups and help them win their campaigns. Over the last 29 years, weve helped over 40 organizations widen their base of support, including Environment America, USPIRG, Fair Share Alliance, Environmental Action and the Human Rights Campaign. We tend to focus our work on the most critical environmental and social justice issues. Last year, our offices helped update the Clean Water Act, repeal Dont Ask, Dont Tell, and make elementary school lunches healthier.
The Project
To ensure success on our Summer 2013 campaigns, this spring we are hiring leaders from the top colleges across the country to work on our campaign staff. We will be visiting schools to hold information sessions and interviews, posting online, using social media to spread the word and contacting students all over the country.
