The Jawbone Collective is seeking an enthusiastic, proactive volunteer to jump in at a pivotal moment. We are bringing a dedicated community literary hub and word café to life—a welcoming space celebrating regional storytelling, spoken word, and inclusive creative culture.

Our crowdfunding campaign page is officially live right now, and our full public launch push takes place this week. We are looking for someone who loves grassroots promotion and storytelling to jump straight in and help us build immediate visibility, rally early supporters, and drive momentum throughout the campaign rollout. Once the campaign concludes, we would love to keep working together on a steady, ongoing basis to support our Substack, social media channels, and community announcements as our new hub opens its doors.

Key Responsibilities:

 Crowdfunder Launch & Promotion (Immediate Priority):

 Jump straight into preparing and executing the daily promotional push as we roll out our public launch this week.

 Help craft and post timely campaign updates, early backer milestones, calls to action, and visual content.

What We Offer:

 A meaningful, high-impact role at a defining moment in building an independent community literary venue.
