What are the responsibilities and job description for the Video Editor / Storyteller position at We Make Change?
Support a startup amplifying the voices of those historically silenced 🗣️
Amplify Voices
Amplify is an advocacy incubator. We discover, develop, and amplify the voices of those historically silenced, misunderstood or oppressed to foster positive change within our communities and causes around the world.
Our world is filled with labels, stereotypes, and judgment that often silence those living with stigma. Too many people feel isolated, disempowered and trapped by shame, their voices unheard and their stories untold. This silence doesn’t just impact individuals—it holds back entire communities from embracing understanding, compassion, and progress.
At Amplify Voices, we believe in the transformative power of storytelling to inspire change, build connections, and break down barriers. Our mission is to elevate the voices of those often unheard by creating platforms for individuals to share their stories and spark meaningful conversations.
We aim to dismantle walls of separation, fostering a world rooted in understanding and compassion. By empowering individuals from marginalized communities to use their voices, we help them create meaningful change in their lives and the communities around them.
Through our programs, Amplify Voices creates lasting transformation by:
- Providing a safe space for participants to share their authentic voices and access deeper healing.
- Building a supportive community where individuals feel seen, heard, and empowered.
- Cultivating confident voices that enable participants to forge meaningful futures.
- Amplifying messages that make a positive impact on communities and causes worldwide.
As a volunteer with Amplify Voices, you’ll have the opportunity to make a direct impact on marginalized communities. Volunteering with us isn’t just about giving your time—it’s about being part of a movement. A movement that uplifts voices, fosters understanding, and drives social change. You’ll work alongside a passionate and supportive team, gain valuable skills, and find purpose in work that truly makes a difference.
Join us in creating a world where every story has a chance to be told and everyone knows, their voice matters and can make a difference in the world. Your time and talents can change lives—starting with your own.
