If you think of our organization as a media platform (like Facebook) where passionate climate activists meet electronically to collaborate and coordinate and then independently act on self-chosen, self-organized projects or positions within our organization, you would have a good idea of how we get everything done with only volunteers.

Being selected and joining our all-volunteer team is an honor. We attract the best, brightest, and most dedicated individuals who understand the collective crisis we are all facing and have have the free time to volunteer. It is considered a privilege to serve humanity's collective well-being and survival at Job One for Humanity.

As a volunteer, you will make a real difference in helping slow and lessen the worst consequences of our global heating emergency. 

Below are some of the opportunities for you to play a vital role in protecting the future of humanity from climate change and global heating. You can work entirely online or in your local area. If you are local to the San Francisco bay area, you can join us occasionally at our office. 

We do have a realistic plan for a safe and sustainable future that will work. We need your volunteering time and expertise to get than plan done.

Help us build new models.

Our Current Volunteer Openings in Order of Priority 

The following positions are listed in order of importance for our organization to continue thriving and speaking the uncensored climate change truth to power. 

If you do not see an administrative position below that you would like, be sure to see our volunteer projects page for additional fascinating volunteering projects now available.

All positions below are part-time and conducted online unless you are in the San Francisco Bay area and choose to come to our offices. Some senior-level administrative positions below that also require secure access to our Internet tools, websites, member and donor lists, etc., will require us to do a full background check before you can start.

1. Part Time Project managers overseeing the creation and initial member selection for our new rural, urban, or online eco-communities (Currently our highest priority.)

Job One for Humanity and UniverseSpirit.org are working together to create the new "survive and thrive" global warming-safer rural, urban, and online eco-communities described in full on this page and its sub-pages. You will be working with other volunteers who want to co-create our Universe community model and outside individuals from other intentional communities or individuals creating independent new communities using parts of our model. 

We quickly need to find numbers project managers soon who:

1. understands why building these new rural, urban, or online eco-communities is critical to our future,

2. is committed to helping us finish our current open-source eco-community model and,

3. can help oversee the projects involving recruiting other volunteers and members to physically build these new global warming-safer communities because we are also running out of time to stay ahead of our accelerating global warming consequences.

We invite everyone interested in helping to realize our evolving eco-community project to volunteer and help us enhance and complete our community model with your ideas, wisdom, and efforts. It is imperative for volunteer sub-project managers to step forward and offer their skills, experience, and expertise in the many areas of knowledge and skill needed to start and maintain these new eco-communities successfully.

The most critical initial areas where volunteer managers and subproject managers are needed are in the areas of law, fund-raising, finance, eco-friendly architectural community design, online and offline education, sustainable (energy efficient) construction, administrative management, recruiting and human resources, medical services, wellness services, psychological support and therapeutic services, internet security, software design, permaculture, organic gardening, animal husbandry, and community and public relations. We will also need other sub-project managers for things, not on this list.

Our new eco-community project managers and subproject managers will not personally do the project work described on these community project description pages. They will manage, communicate, and coordinate with other skilled eco-community volunteers who will be organized into self-running, sub-projects, which also will have separate sub-project managers.

For these project or subproject manager positions, you will need good people and project management skills.

If you're looking for an exciting volunteer position where you can make a major difference in what many acknowledge as the most important mission on the planet right now, let us know if you are interested. If you want to help co-create these new eco-communities as the project director or as a sub-project manager, email [email protected] and put "New Eco-Community Project Manager or Sub-project Manager " in the subject line. Please also provide any information about your people skills, project management experience, and other previous experiences or skills that would be helpful. 

As of 3.17.23, we are accelerating our new eco-communities project forward faster to better adjust to, prepare for, and manage the risks of the accelerating global heating extinction emergency and our 11 other most critical global challenges.

We have completed a good portion of the new community model design work on the first of what we hope will be many new sustainable eco-communities. A small group of individuals and families have already said they want to participate in this project, and all we need now is someone with the skill and commitment to volunteer as the project manager to take us to the next level, as described on this page and its subpages.
