For nonprofits
Who does GA Jersey Village work with?
Only nonprofit and 501(c)(3) organizations. Our current client is L.E.A.D. (Law Enforcement Against Drugs & Violence), and our outreach carries its message to the families and communities it serves across Houston.
What is L.E.A.D.?
L.E.A.D. (Law Enforcement Against Drugs & Violence) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to preventing drug abuse, violence, and bullying. It works with schools, communities, and local police to bring prevention education to young people, teaching critical life skills, resilience, and the importance of healthy choices.
How does GA Jersey Village support L.E.A.D.?
L.E.A.D. is its own nonprofit and our client. Our part is local and specific: event marketing and face to face outreach that bring L.E.A.D.'s prevention message to more families across Houston, including the Kindness Wins anti-bullying campaign. Credit for the program itself belongs to L.E.A.D. and the officers and educators who deliver it.
How can my nonprofit work with GA Jersey Village?
Get in touch through the contact page, by email at admin@gajerseyvillage.com, or by phone at (832) 553-6157 ext. 0, and a member of the team will get back to you. From there the work runs in four stages: understand your mission, build the strategy, execute in the community with trained field teams, and grow the impact beyond a single campaign.
How do you agree on what a good result looks like?
In the first conversation, before the first event. We like to write the goal down plainly, naming the thing your organization wants more of, so the campaign can be judged against it. A useful report then covers what happened, where and on which days, and what it produced.
Careers
Is GA Jersey Village hiring?
Often, yes. The entry level role is Community Outreach & Events Associate, and we grow the outreach team as our nonprofit work grows. Applying takes about two minutes on the careers page.
What is the work like day to day?
The work happens face to face. You represent a nonprofit campaign at community events, tabling spots, storefronts, schools, and neighborhood gatherings around Houston: setting up, talking with the people you meet, and answering their questions about the cause. You work in a small group, you are on your feet, and part of the day is outdoors.
Do you need experience to work at GA Jersey Village?
No experience is needed. Roles are entry level, and the company hires for attitude and willingness to learn, then teaches the rest on the job.
How do training and mentorship work?
Your first days are mostly learning. You meet the team, learn what the nonprofit does, who it serves, and the questions people ask most, and practice the conversation with the team. You are paired with a mentor who has done the role, you watch them work first, and they are beside you for your first conversations. After that, development continues through hands-on training, goal-setting, real-time feedback, and leadership conferences and regional trainings.
What is the hiring process?
Apply online and a confirmation email arrives right away. A member of the team then calls to introduce themselves and talk through the role. Next is a visit to the Houston office to meet the people you would work with, and then a chance to see the outreach work in person alongside the team.
What should I ask before I accept a role?
Ask for the specifics in writing: the role, who you report to, the schedule, and the location. Ask who your mentor will be and whether you can meet them first. These are ordinary questions, and the team expects them.
