Social media content writer volunteer roles

This Is Not a Typical Content Creator Call-Out
Tell My Truth and Shame the Devil C.I.C. is building a truth-telling media engine and community-owned digital infrastructure to confront CSA, centre survivor truth, and create real economic and leadership pathways for young people. To do that, we are intentionally recruiting hundreds to thousands of content creators globally. This is not about chasing virality. This is not influencer culture. This is not one brand voice. This is about collective creation at scale, community ownership of narrative, and building systems that give many people opportunity—not just a few. If you want to contribute your creative skills to something bigger than yourself, keep reading.

Content is created once and then reused across:

•        Campaigns, education, and outreach
This role exists at scale because our strategy is scale.

•        AI Content Creators – generating content variations, captions, visuals, and scripts using AI tools
•        Video Creators – TikTok, Reels, Shorts, YouTube (short-form and long-form)
•        Audio Creators – podcasters, musicians, sound designers

You may fit one lane or several.
