Razom, which means “together” in Ukrainian, is dedicated to upholding the principles of the Revolution of Dignity (Maidan) and actively contributing to the establishment of a secure, prosperous, and democratic Ukraine. We achieve this by creating, inspiring, and collaborating on initiatives that motivate people to think, partner and do.

Razom is at an exciting, pivotal juncture. The organization is focused on meeting the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine caused by Russia’s full‑scale invasion, while building a sustainable future for the organization that can maintain its commitment to Ukraine in the long‑term. Razom experienced unprecedented growth in a short period of time, and to build upon this, Razom is investing in a Philanthropy Officer who can connect with our robust community.

The Philanthropy Officer (PO) is responsible for maximizing major gift revenue to Razom by cultivating, soliciting, stewarding, and maintaining ongoing relationships with an assigned portfolio of major donors and prospects (individual and corporate). The ideal candidate is a self‑driven, goal‑oriented, front‑line fundraiser who will play a vital role in contributing to the development of a major giving program at Razom, working on the Advancement team, and collaborating with staff across the organization. This is an exciting opportunity for a fundraiser that is prepared to excel in a fast‑paced environment.
