5 days ago
History and Background
RMHCSC is a $20+ million nonprofit governed by the Board of Directors. In January 2022 Fatima Djelmane Rodriguez, the former Executive Director for Camp Ronald McDonald for Good Times transitioned to CEO of RMHCSC following the 9-year tenure of Vincent Bryson as CEO and 13 years as the Executive Director of the LA Ronald McDonald House. A successful fundraiser herself, Rodriguez is energized by the growth of RMHCSC.
The Executive Director is responsible for providing leadership and management for one or more program(s). Working in partnership with the Chief Executive Officer and the Board of Trustees (an advisory board vs. the RMHCSC Board of Directors, which is the governing fiduciary board), the Executive Director will oversee a $1.9 million dollar
budget for a house that, for more than 14 years, has accommodated up to 23 families, at one time, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Last year the LBRMH served more than 1,300 guests, providing 4,537 family nights and 254 meals, with an average length of stay of 10 nights.
As a senior management team member, the new Executive Director will establish and lead a diversified fund development program with an emphasis on building a sustainable long-term philanthropy program. The ED will provide the CEO and board with a comprehensive plan that will boost revenue and strengthen relationships with key partners.

With the support of the CEO, the successful Executive Director will create KPI's to track and evaluate effective implementation of successful practices across all levels of the organization. The ED will also oversee wealth screening and identify potential corporate partnerships and create strategic activation opportunities for current partners.
