Hi Professor Buhler,

I'm a director for the Fund for the Public Interest, a national
non-profit that runs campaigns on environmental and social justice
issues for groups like Environment America, U.S. PIRG and the Human
Rights Campaign. Right now we're hiring students for summer jobs on our
campaigns. We are holding information sessions and interviews at Wash U
St Louis next week and I was hoping you could help spread the word to
students on your list, I imagine some of them will be interested.

Below I’ve included a blurb about the organization and the jobs
available. Would you be willing to send it to your students?


Thanks for your consideration!

The Fund for the Public Interest is a national non-profit organization
that works to build support for progressive organizations across the
country. We run campaigns for the Human Rights Campaign, USPIRG, and
Environment America. This summer we will be in over 50 cities, working
and lobbying to help win environmental and social justice campaigns.

Last summer our staff helped ban off-shore drilling to protect our
coasts, repeal Don’t Ask Don’t Tell, and increase food safety standards
to make school lunches safer- all while building valuable leadership skills.

Currently, we have paid positions open on our campaign staff in each of
our locations. We require that interested candidates are hard workers
and have excellent communication skills.

As a member of our staff, you will fundraise, build membership for our
partner groups, and educate and activate citizens on pressing issues.
While on staff, you gain knowledge of pressing concerns our country is
facing, learn how to effectively generate public support, and obtain a
firm understanding of the political process.

We will be holding information sessions and interviews at Wash U on
March 26th and 27th at 10am, 2pm, 4pm and 6pm each day. All sessions
will be in Danforth University Center, Room 248. To apply, please visit

800-75-EARTH (753-2784).
