EDITORIAL OUTREACH COORDINATOR — VOLUNTEER, FULL-TIME
Organization: Right to Live Canada
Department: Global Narrative Integrity Team
Location: Remote (United States, Canada or Europe)
Time Commitment: Full-time volunteer commitment, 35 hours per week. Duration negotiable, four month minimum.
This is a remote volunteer opportunity with Right to Live Canada, a virtual-office based Canadian non-profit start-up.
------ THE MISSION
Right to Live Canada exists to realize the right to live as a practical, supported, executable choice.
We were founded in response to systemic poverty-driven euthanasia amongst Canadians with disabilities: cases where Canadians choose MAiD because they cannot access the essentials required to continue living. This is a specific form of economic euthanasia: euthanasia where a preferable living future existed, but was not achieved.
That crisis remains our founding application point. It is not the boundary of our work.
Right to Live Canada is building Continuity: the service, financial, technological, and institutional architecture required to keep life connected to preferable living futures.
Our four core areas are:
- Continuity Service
- Continuity Insurance
- Social Brokerage
- Corporate Farming
Right to Live Canada is a founder-centric, early-stage nonprofit pursuing rapid national and global expansion through volunteer leadership, institutional partnerships, and mission-driven innovation.
