Our Mission

Christians for Impact helps Christians to have a maximum impact on the world’s most pressing pressing problems. Our approach is guided by the principles of effective altruism and grounded in our Christian faith.

Position Overview

This role is a part time outreach internship.

You will help fellow students at your university to find meaningful, impactful careers and explore effective altruist ideas.

The campus reps will report to JD Bauman (Director) and collaborate closely with CFI’s global team, including other campus reps around the US and UK

Why This Role

We think there is huge demand among students for exploring about key themes such as:

  • What does God want me to do with my life?

  • How can I use my skills, resources and opportunities to have the greatest kingdom impact after graduation?

  • How can I best serve the poor and the “least of these” (Matt 25)?

  • How can I get a job that pays well, makes a difference, and that I enjoy?

As a campus rep, you will help people to find answers to these questions, and launch into careers with a large impact on pressing global problems.

What you might do:

  • Have 1-on-1 chats with fellow students about their career, calling, impact, and effective altruism (Goal: 20)

  • Lead a bible study, a career workshop, or present CFI at your university’s club fair or Fresher’s Fair (Goal 1)

  • Connect with other wonderful Christians on the CFI team and other campus reps around the US/UK on biweekly calls.

How this benefits you

  • Receive hands-on training on how you can have a maximum impact with your career, and learn how to share relevant resources with others.

  • Networking with CFI podcast guests, mentors and advisors.

  • Connect with a supportive, encouraging, and prayerful community within CFI!

  • Possibilities for future employment by CFI or a partner organization of CFI.

Testimonies from past reps:

“Please keep doing this program! We need more people doing this so that EACH grows! And not for "numbers" sake but that more Christians will think carefully about their money and not waste it on the stupid American dream and instead save people's lives and eternities!”

- Alex at Texas A&M University

“It has really widened my perspective and given me a platform to engage with amazing and zealous Christian youth. It has also helped me grow in faith and has challenged me to do more. I really appreciate it.”

- Wanjru at Strathmore University

The best candidates have/are:

  • In US or UK: We expect that you are studying at a university, either at an undergraduate or graduate level.

  • Alignment with Mission: A deep commitment to CFI’s mission and values. The candidate identifies as a Christian and strongly agrees with the core ideas behind effective altruism.

  • Knowledge of core concepts: Can articulate CFI’s unique perspective on career advising, and has at least read our key concepts. Is somewhat familiar with our top recommendations by cause area.

  • Independence & Conscientiousness: Highly self-motivated and conscientious, able to work independently while maintaining regular communication with JD. Comfortable with biweekly check-ins with a manager to report progress.

  • Interpersonal Skills: Friendly, extroverted, and socially agile. Able to build rapport quickly and navigate conversations with a wide range of people, especially more analytic thinkers who tend to be attracted to CFI’s appraoch.

  • Enterprising Mindset: Resourceful and proactive, especially in a small-team environment. Takes initiative to seize opportunities, solve problems creatively, and “wear many hats” as needed in a growing organization.

  • Ecumenicalism: Ability to main professionalism in a wide range of Christian environments, in contexts ranging from conservative evangelical to catholic to progressive mainline.

  • Credibility in Christian Contexts: Has the experience and character to earn respect among leaders and members of our core audiences. (For example, you can engage knowledgably with theology-minded individuals and demonstrate humility and integrity in ministry contexts.)

  • Community-Building Experience: Prior experience in community building, outreach coordination, or organizing talks/events – especially in Christian contexts.
