Partnership Development/Growth Marketing Role:
Don’t mind the unusual name, this role is exactly as it sounds: a storyteller with designs to equip city-goers with a new response to homelessness. If you feel that it is part of our mandate to help those who are lost and not just that of the government or nonprofits, read on; we want to galvanize Seattle’s response to homelessness with your help. Available Part-Time or Full-Time.
About Samaritan:
Samaritan is a platform designed to reveal the journeys of those we pass every day — the single mom on the bus, the grandfather on the street, the homeless teen outside the supermarket — and provide an effective, cashless way to respond.
Small Bluetooth Beacons are distributed to individuals through nonprofit partners, such that if you have the Samaritan app, you’ll receive a push notification as you pass by a beacon holder, with the opportunity to read a slice of the person’s life or contribute a needed good or service (such as food, fuel or clothing). Learn more at www.samaritan.city.
Responsibilities:
Requirements:
Samaritan provides smart wallets (called beacons) to people on the street, linking them to financial capital and relationship guidance needed to find a home.
