    Volunteer Executive Assistant & Nonprofit Growth Support (Virtual)

    About the Volunteer Role

    Volunteer | Part-Time | Remote | 3–5 Hours Per Week | 6–12 Months

    Outdoor Life Leadership is looking for a dependable volunteer to support our Volunteer Executive Director & Chief Growth Officer.

    You will help with research, planning, organization, follow-up, and other tasks that help a growing nonprofit stay on track. This is a hands-on opportunity to gain real nonprofit leadership and organizational experience.

    You do not need years of nonprofit experience. If you are organized, dependable, willing to learn, and good at following through, we encourage you to apply.

    What You Will Do

    • Track tasks and deadlines.
    • Research grants, donors, sponsors, and partners.
    • Help find new growth opportunities.
    • Prepare simple notes and research summaries.
    • Organize leadership materials.
    • Track important goals and next steps.
    • Complete short research and support tasks.

    What You Will Gain

    • Real nonprofit leadership experience.
    • Grant and funding research experience.
    • Partnership and community outreach experience.
    • Organizational and project support experience.
    • Experience using Google Workspace and online tools.
    • A professional reference or LinkedIn recommendation after successful completion.

    Who Should Apply?

    This role is open to:

    • Students and recent graduates.
    • Working professionals.
    • Career changers.
    • Experienced volunteers.
    • Anyone interested in nonprofit leadership or community service.

    You do not need to be a nonprofit expert.

    Most tasks can be completed independently. A short check-in will help set priorities and review progress.

    Why Your Support Matters

    Your support will help Outdoor Life Leadership keep important tasks moving while our leadership focuses on fundraising, partnerships, community relationships, and organizational growth.

    This is an unpaid volunteer position. There is no salary or stipend.

    Applicants must reside in the United States. Due to application volume, only applicants selected for an interview will be contacted.
