Why do you work for Grassroots Campaigns?

Liam Sumnicht
Kansas City Street Field Manager, canvasser since October 2010

"I travel often, and I first heard about Grassroots when I was in search of a job that would work with my schedule. I wasn't sure about going door to door in support of a political figure. Then I learned more about the Grassroots method, including non-forceful, effective communication with people, and leaving people with a positive attitude through kindness - whether or not they agree with what we're out to talk about. That idea has held through my entire experience and has been one of my favorite things about working for the company. Now I'm fundraising for the Save the Children campaign, and I've been trained in techniques that would be highly effective in a sales job. The opportunity to help children who are in the most need with an organization as efficient as Save the Children has been incredibly rewarding. Grassroots has been a blast."
