Mass Audiences Summer Intern

Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an international humanitarian organization that delivers impartial medical care to people affected by conflict, epidemics, disasters, or exclusion from health care in over 70 countries.

We welcome candidates who bring a wide variety of backgrounds and experiences to join us in working toward MSF’s common mission.

 

 

Our dynamic Development Department is responsible for raising over $500 million annually to support the mission of the organization.

 

 

Under the guidance of the Senior Manager of Mass Market Acquisition and Retention, the Mass Audiences Intern provides administrative and general support to the Doctors Without Borders Mass Audiences giving program, including marketing campaign coordination, special projects, data input, trafficking creative materials, and more.

 

The Mass Audiences Intern will support the Senior Manager of Mass Market Acquisition and Retention in a wide range of activities to grow the Mass Audiences program. Working with this team will provide insight into how MSF approaches and cultivates donors in its fundraising efforts, in order to provide lifesaving medical care around the world. There will also be opportunities to learn about MSF's programs and how it operates as a non-profit in the United States, as well as its international programs and the role that MSF-USA plays in the MSF movement. The Mass Audiences Intern will receive experiential learning in marketing and branding, including processes related to campaign creation and implementation across channels, fundraising metrics, and key performance indicators and collaborate extensively with channel managers. This internship is ideal for anyone interested in a career in development (fundraising) for a non-profit, as well as the administration of humanitarian organizations (NGOs).

 

The Mass Audiences program is responsible for the identification, engagement, growth, and retention of donors under $1,000, including both single gift and sustaining donors. The Mass Audiences Intern will join a team of four: the Senior Manager of Mass Market Acquisition and Retention, Senior Manager of Sustainer Giving, Workplace Giving Manager, and Face-to-Face Fundraising Manager, led by the Mass Audiences Director.
