  • Oversee a system of personalized gift acknowledgment, recognition, and stewardship. 
  • Research and maintain a pipeline of potential grant funding available to the Center. Establish a timeline for submission of either LOI or grant application for each prospect. Create a calendar and follow through on submissions as indicated. 
  • Work with the Board’s Development and Program Committees through participation in monthly meetings. Conduct 1:1 weekly meetings with President to ensure development activities are progressing. As opportunities arise, establish volunteer committees to assist with and drive recognition of fundraising events, such as galas.
  • Work with the President on establishing the Center’s revenue goals and annual budget.
