Job description

Description:

POSITION SUMMARY:

The Annual Giving & Alumni Engagement Officer manages St. Philip's annual donor pipeline — all donors below the major gift threshold — with a Year 1 target of $500,000, while simultaneously building St. Philip’s alumni engagement program. St. Philip's primary donor base is not a parent community; it is a diverse mix of foundations, individuals, corporations, and faith community partners, requiring appeals that are deeply mission-driven. This role is also responsible for the long-term cultivation of K–8 alumni as future donors and recurring donors, luncheon ambassadors, and community advocates. Strong writing and organization skills, systems thinking, and the discipline to manage both a high-volume annual fund and a relationship-based alumni program are essential.


MAJOR JOB DUTIES/RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Own the annual giving pipeline for all donors below the major gift threshold — renewal, stewardship, and acquisition
  • Write and produce annual appeals that are mission-driven, community-rooted, and donor-specific — not generic institutional communications
  • Execute gift acknowledgment within 48 hours for all donors; personally call or write major annual donors
  • Manage the renewal calendar — ensure every annual donor is re-solicited at the right time with the right message
  • Manage faith community donor relationships at the annual fund level — attend faith community events, build congregation relationships
  • Steward foundation relationships for small recurring grants in coordination with the Foundations & Grants Manager
  • Own donor acquisition — systematically convert event attendees, volunteers, and warm contacts to first-time donors
  • Build and maintain the K–8 alumni database — locate, verify, and add contact information for all graduates
  • Develop the alumni engagement program: newsletters, reunion events, milestone recognition, school connection activities
  • Recruit and activate alumni as Destiny Award Luncheon ambassadors — table hosts, ticket sellers, community advocates
  • Flag high-capacity alumni for the CPO or Major Gifts Director as prospects for major gift cultivation
  • Track and report annual fund performance weekly; track alumni engagement metrics quarterly
