    Description

    About Good Together

    Good Together is a 501(c)(3) Christian speed dating nonprofit creating meaningful, faith-centered connections for singles across America. We're not just another dating service, we're building a movement where Christian singles find community, encouragement, and God-willing, their person.

    With exceptional match rates and welcoming, high-energy speed dating events, we're expanding from our roots in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas to cities nationwide.

    The Role

    We're looking for passionate, organized Christians to bring Good Together to their city as City Hosts. You'll be the face of Good Together in your community - coordinating events, building church partnerships, and creating spaces where singles feel genuinely seen and valued.

    This isn't just about logistics. You're shepherding an experience that could change someone's life. You're the person who makes nervous first-timers feel welcome, who sets the tone for authentic connection, and who reminds your city's Christian singles that they're not alone in this.

    What You'll Do

    Event Coordination (Primary Responsibility)

    • Host and facilitate 1-3 speed dating events per month (mostly Friday/Saturday evenings)
    • Set up event space, check in participants, and run speed dating rounds
    • Ensure smooth event flow and tabulate match cards
    • Create a warm, welcoming atmosphere where people feel comfortable being themselves

    Community Building

    • Help build relationships with local churches, young adult pastors, and Christian organizations
    • Assist Good Together's outreach efforts to church leadership and singles groups

    What We Provide

    • Full training: We'll teach you everything from how to facilitate rounds to handling match cards
    • Complete event kit: Match cards, name tags, signage, supplies - we ship it all to you
    • Marketing resources: Social media graphics, church presentation decks, promotional copy
    • Tech resources: Event management app to ensure smooth day-of logistics
    • Ongoing support: Direct access to our team, regular host calls, detailed playbook
    • Autonomy with guidance: You run your city; we support you

    Who You Are

    ✓ An active Christian with a heart for singles ministry and community building

    ✓ Event experience: You've hosted gatherings, led small groups, or organized events (professional or volunteer)

    ✓ Comfortable up front: You can welcome a room of 30-60 people and set a warm, engaging tone

    ✓ Well-connected locally: You have relationships in your city's Christian community (churches, young adult groups, Christian networks)

    ✓ Organized & reliable: You can manage logistics, communicate clearly, and show up prepared

    ✓ Mission-driven: You see this as ministry, not just a side gig

    Bonus points if:

    • You're a couple who wants to serve singles together
    • You have experience in Christian young adult ministry
    • You have social media presence in your local Christian community
    • You know church staff, young adult pastors, or Christian org leaders

    Time Commitment

    • 1-3 events per month (build your own schedule)
    • Each event: 3-4 hours (includes setup, event, breakdown)

    This works great for:

    • Full-time employees looking for meaningful volunteer opportunities
    • Church staff wanting to serve their singles community
    • Stay-at-home parents with evening availability
    • Seminary students or ministry-minded professionals
