Lead direct response fundraising (mail, email, monthly giving). Support grants strategy and proposal development (grant writing may be supported by others). Corporate Giving & Sponsorships Develop and manage a corporate engagement and sponsorship program. Create customized proposals and benefit packages. Conduct proactive outreach to secure new and renewed corporate partnerships. Board & Volunteer Engagement Support the CEO in cultivating a fundraising-driven Board culture. Provide Board members with tools, training, and follow-up support for donor engagement. Collaborate with the Resource Development Committee on strategy and progress. Stewardship & Donor Experience Oversee a comprehensive stewardship program including acknowledgments, impact updates, donor recognition, and thank-you outreach. Ensure donors experience consistent, personalized engagement that strengthens long-term commitment. Event Revenue (Strategy Only) Serve as the strategic lead for event revenue and sponsorships. Support event committees with donor engagement; logistics handled by other staff. Marketing/Communications (Collaborative) Partner with marketing/communications staff or contractors to ensure compelling fundraising messaging. Provide donor stories and impact content as needed.
