[GAINPOWER.org: Jobs That Are Left] Fwd: Weekly Updates From GAIN Power

Weekly updates from and about our member community

We're sending prayers and condolences to the individuals in Maui, Hawaii, who are dealing with devastating & fatal wildfires. We also want to thank the first responders who are risking their lives to save others. If you would like to help those affected by the wildfires, consider donating to the Maui Mutual Aid Fund. In better news, we're thrilled to see such a powerful victory in Ohio this week - kudos to all involved. We're looking forward to seeing Ohio voters protecting abortion access in the fall too. Our friend Tom Bonier at Target Smart has some good early analyses of the turnout there that are worth a quick read. We're super excited about the news from the DNC this week as well. Our first Powerful IDEA Award Living Legend recipient Minyon Moore will serve as the Chair of the 2024 Convention in Chicago. We love to see DNC Deputy ED Roger Lau's portfolio expanded to include assisting there too. The whole leadership team is amazing. We're continuing to see a big uptick in our Career Center. It is filling up with job opportunities in Progressive politics that need people like YOU to continue making a difference.   We have two Virtual Career Fairs scheduled for September 7th & December 7th to link talent with progressive organizations. For all our employers who are building their teams for 2024, register today! Finally, please note that we depend on membership and donations to finance our programs.
