Overview
We are seeking a highly motivated and detail-oriented Donor Relations Specialist to join our team - the catch is you are securing technology donations, not cash.

This model extends the useful life of electronic hardware, diverting e-waste from landfills while providing hands-on IT training and mentorship to youth.
The successful candidate will be instrumental in cultivating and stewarding relationships with new and existing technology donors, managing the donor pipeline, and ensuring accurate and effective use of our Copper CRM. This hybrid role requires excellent communication skills, a proactive approach to relationship development, and a passion for our charitable mission.

- Collaborate to plan and execute donor appreciation events and meetings, both in-person and virtually.
- Communicate with the team to onboard new technology donations.
- Collaborate with senior leadership to set and review clear goals and strategies.
CRM and Data Management
- Manage the full donor pipeline, from initial prospect identification through cultivation, solicitation, and stewardship.
- Generate reports on donor activity, pipeline status, and fundraising performance
- Assist in training team members on best practices for CRM usage.
Qualifications
- Proven experience in fundraising, donor relations, or a related field.
- Demonstrated ability to source and cultivate new donor relationships.

- Highly organized with strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously.
- Proficiency in using CRM software; experience with Copper and Google Workspace is a plus.
- Understanding of computer hardware and software is a huge asset.
- Valid Driver's License.
