Direct Mail Art Designer

At MissionWired, we help clients create revolutionary digital strategies that advance their mission, change our country, and have a positive impact on the world. 

MissionWired is the only wholly integrated, digital-first direct marketing agency for nonprofits and Democratic organizations. We help our partners tell big, ambitious stories that invite their supporters into communities to raise mission-changing revenue. Our results are unrivaled, having converted more than $3.1 billion in donations to the world's most trusted philanthropies and groundbreaking campaigns. We do it over email and SMS, in the mail, across social media, everywhere. We don't think in terms of channels; we're single-minded in pursuit of your success.

We're digital-obsessed, tech-savvy do-gooders who care deeply about social change. We've brought strategies to life for nonprofit organizations working around the world, including Sandy Hook Promise, Animal Legal Defense Fund, Save the Children, and Friends of the Earth, as well as progressive political organizations, campaigns and candidates. Each cycle is an opportunity for us to support organizations across the country while electing Democrats to office at every level.

We're an equal-opportunity employer and take seriously our commitment to equality and equity. Our efforts to be inclusive and create opportunity don't end when someone joins us - they begin. 

We've set our sights on changing the world through our work and with our clients, and representation is at the foundation of what we do. We know that diversity of thought and background makes us stronger. That's why we're committed to building and maintaining a diverse community.

Every new team member broadens our perspective and allows us to think bigger. We'll be at our best when people from underrepresented communities and people with a range of perspectives and lived experiences want to come, stay, and push the boundaries of what's possible.
