You’ll work alongside our leadership team and play a direct role in helping Lumoset scale its impact.

🕒 Time Commitment

💰 Stipend & Recognition

This is a volunteer-based position , but for those with grant writing experience, we offer a results-based stipend :

50% upon official grant approval / award confirmation

Those seeking experience only will not receive stipends but will receive mentorship, letters of recommendation, and portfolio support. This role is ideal for anyone looking to gain real-world experience or build their grant writing portfolio.

In addition to grant writing, we’re also seeking volunteers who are interested in — or have experience with — federal contracts through SAM.gov . Lumoset is a registered entity with an active SAM.gov account, and we’re beginning to explore small business and nonprofit contract opportunities that align with our mission of promoting digital literacy, online safety, and scam prevention.

These contracts aren’t just about bringing in funding — they’re a way to expand our outreach, deliver community programs, and support underserved populations using government-backed resources. Volunteers who assist with identifying and preparing contract proposals may be eligible for a results-based stipend from awarded contracts, just like our grant structure. This is a great opportunity for someone who understands (or wants to learn) how federal support can power mission-driven impact.
