  • Excellent communication and leadership skills; ability to work flexible hours, including evenings and weekends.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office and event/donor management software; experience with Salesforce and Greater Giving is a plus.
  • Must be able to lift up to 25 pounds and pass a national criminal background check.
