Do you love dogs? Do you have an insatiable curiosity for all things social media? The Sato Project needs you. We are looking for savvy social media enthusiasts to drive awareness for our upcoming fundraiser, No Ordinary Girls, an all-female boxing event.
The main program is scheduled for Thursday July 9 and creative communicators will help promote the TSP's mission, adoption initiatives and fundraising efforts. Platforms of interest include Periscope, Instagram, Twitter and Facebook (listed in order of importance). Interns will work closely with the communications liaison to ensure messaging is hitting target markets, and driving SEO/market awareness.
We're estimating 10-15 hours leading up to the event on 7/9, with mandatory attendance onsite at the event (location in Brooklyn) from 4p - 10p.
Submit summary of social media experience, your name and contact info with a list of your current online handles, your preferred social media platform.
All efforts are in support of The Sato Project--a non profit that rescues and rehabilitates dogs in Puerto Rico for adoption here in the U.S.
Thank you!

About The Sato Project
Location:
130 Water St, C/O Gleason's Gym, Brooklyn, NY 11201, US
Mission Statement
The Sato Project is dedicated to rescuing abused and abandoned dogs from Puerto Rico.
Description
The Sato Project primarily works in the municipality of Yabucoa, on the southeastern coast of the island, which has been rated the poorest of all 78 Puerto Rican municipalities. The median household income is well below the national average and over half of its population lives below the Federal poverty line.
We concentrate our rescue on a place known as Dead Dog Beach. As its name states, it is usually a last resting place for dogs, and it is not a happy one. No dog walks to Dead Dog Beach - it is at the end of a long road with no residences - they are dumped there. There is no food or fresh water on the beach. We are the dogs’ only source of food, fresh water, and most importantly, love, on a daily basis.
We take our rescue mission very seriously. Rescuing dogs means more than just pulling them off a beach or the streets. We are dedicated to each and every one of our dogs and we want to give them the greatest chance in life. After what they have been through, what they have witnessed, we never want them to suffer again.
The Sato Project is making permanent change in Puerto Rico. We encourage you to join us.
