Vancouver, Canada Covenant House Vancouver Full time

**About Covenant House**:
Since 1997, Covenant House Vancouver has provided essential and relentless support for youth experiencing, or at-risk of experiencing, homelessness. We provide support to youth ages 16 to 24 who have experienced a wide range of early life and ongoing, complex trauma including physical, sexual, emotional abuse, and neglect. Our purpose is to serve all youth with absolute respect and unconditional love, to help youth experiencing homelessness, and provide a safe and supportive environment for all youth in need.

**The Impact a Philanthropy Officer with the Corporate, Foundation and Community Giving Team can make**:
As a Philanthropy Officer with our Corporate and Foundation Giving portfolio you will manage around 350+ corporate and foundation donors who give between $1,000 and $4,999 annually. Using your strong communication, administrative, organization, and relationship-building skills you will engage these supporters in the work of Covenant House Vancouver (CHV), ask for monetary donations to support our cause, and help tell our story to demonstrate the impact of how donors are making a difference in the lives of youth who choose CHV for support. You are keen to receive donor strategy advice from team members and to take the initiative to move forward with suggested actions such as phone call introductions, invitations to attend events, asking donors to discuss their future donations, thanking donors for their support guided by the size and scope of their investment. You want to make a difference to help youth who are experiencing homelessness and care about the success of your teammates and the organization.

**How you will contribute**:

- Build meaningful relationships with annual corporate and foundation donors through thoughtful questions to understand their interests, passions, and reasons for supporting the youth at CHV

- Invite supporters to participate in events including donor engagement gatherings, gratitude events, Sleep Out events, and other fundraising events
- Support other projects and working groups to contribute to the Philanthropy team’s overall goals
- Perform administrative tasks including data entry into our database (Raiser’s Edge) and answering the general donations phone line in a warm and helpful manner to assist donors with their requests and concerns
- Other duties as required

**Who are we looking for?**:
**Education and Experience**:

- 2+ years of experience with fundraising and donor relations, communications or similar experience

- Big picture thinker with attention to detail
- Ability to juggle competing demands, prioritize with ease and are efficient with your time, and comfortable with deadlines
