Copyediting

Project details

What we need
  • Review of up to 20 pages of copy for grammar, style, tone, and consistency
  • Advice on how to write effective copy going forward
Additional details

We have several urgent writing projects that we could use support on.

What we have in place
  • We currently have draft copy in a Google doc, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have background information and campaign context, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $1,792 , allowing us to apply the money saved to organizing strategic, nonviolent protests of corporate polluters and opposing environmentally destructive projects.

Stand.earth is a nonprofit environmental organization working to create a world where respect for people and the environment comes first. Our campaigns challenge destructive corporate and governmental practices, demand accountability, and create solutions that support all of us -- and the environment and climate we depend upon. Your work will directly support active campaigns in the world and move use closer to winning.
