Remote Nonprofit Fundraiser - Phone-Based

Remote Nonprofit Fundraiser - Phone-Based

$20-$24/hour | Fully Remote | Saskatchewan

Build a Fundraising Career From Home

Being great on the phone is a real skill.

If you're the person who can make conversation easily, explain an idea clearly and keep someone engaged, Public Outreach wants to hear from you.

We're hiring Remote Phone Fundraisers in Saskatchewan to represent nonprofit organizations working on humanitarian, environmental and social-impact causes.

You'll have real conversations with people who have already shown an interest in the organizations you're representing and inspire them to become long-term monthly donors.

This is not cold calling. Your hourly wage is guaranteed - this is not commission-only work.

What You'll Actually Be Doing

During your shifts, you'll:

• Speak with nonprofit supporters by phone

• Learn about important social and humanitarian issues

• Explain why those issues matter in a clear, relatable way

• Ask questions and build genuine rapport

• Tell compelling stories

• Ask supporters to make recurring monthly donations

• Handle objections and rejection professionally

• Work toward clear fundraising goals

• Receive regular feedback and coaching

Remote Doesn't Mean Casual

This is structured, performance-based work.

You'll be expected to be ready for your shifts, maintain a professional home workspace, actively make calls and work toward your fundraising goals.

You'll also hear "no" regularly.

Strong fundraisers learn from each conversation, take coaching seriously and keep their energy up when the last call didn't go their way.

Check Your Technology Before Applying

To work remotely, you need:

• Windows 11+ desktop or laptop

• Minimum 50 Mbps download / 30 Mbps upload internet

• Wired headset with microphone

• Private, quiet workspace

• Reliable high-speed internet - wired Ethernet strongly preferred

• Basic technical confidence

MacBooks are not compatible with our calling system.

A technology check, including internet speed and voice connection testing, is part of our hiring process.

You Could Be Great at This If...

You:

• Enjoy talking to people

• Have a warm, engaging phone presence

• Can explain ideas clearly

• Are persuasive without being aggressive

• Can handle rejection

• Like working toward measurable goals

• Are interested in nonprofit or social-impact work

• Take feedback well

• Can stay motivated while working independently

Previous fundraising experience isn't required.

People from customer service, hospitality, sales, education, theatre, advocacy, communications, community work and other people-facing backgrounds can translate particularly well.
