  • Meet annual revenue goals for the church program and provide timely, accurate forecasts based on portfolio activity and donor readiness.
  • Serve as a dynamic spokesperson for Free Wheelchair Mission at churches, conferences, and events—delivering compelling presentations that inspire engagement and partnership.
  • Establish and develop strong relationships with churches by identifying partnership opportunities within Orange County and out-of-state as needed. Conduct face-to-face meetings with potential and existing churches. Sunday work will be required.
  • Available for occasional domestic and international travel, including weekends, to speak on behalf of Free Wheelchair Mission at churches.
  • Partner closely with the Major Gifts Officers on larger opportunities while continuing to continue to advance, and close appropriate opportunities within the Church Relations portfolio.
  • Maintain consistent and accurate records of all communications and activities in the database.
  • Maintain high levels of outreach activity, including calls, meetings, and follow-up, with a strong emphasis on pipeline development.
  • Perform other duties and tasks as assigned by the direct supervisor.
