- Gain expertise in Winnipeg’s food landscape and act as an advocate for food systems solutions and innovation in Winnipeg, taking leadership both within Leftovers and in the broader community.
- Contribute to our emerging culture of localized philanthropy by seeking out localized funding opportunities (grants, donor relationships, fundraisers) and stewarding Leftovers’ supporters in Winnipeg.
- Support and liaise with other team staff.
- Attend relevant meetings with the larger organization and contribute to organizational initiatives, strategic planning, and operational goals.
- The Winnipeg City Coordinator is also responsible for the management and growth of the Selkirk Rescue Food program
