This is a great opportunity to join our dynamic fundraising team and the broader Riverside community!
Riverside Community Care is one of the largest and most respected community-based not-for-profit behavioral healthcare and human service organizations in Massachusetts. The breadth of our services, our investment in innovation, and a commitment to a positive work environment, has earned us national recognition, the respect of our peers, loyalty from our employees, and high ratings from the people we serve. We serve children, adolescents, families, and adults in need of behavioral healthcare and a broad range of human services. Communities, schools, and workplaces also turn to Riverside when faced with the emotional aftermath of tragic events or on around suicide prevention.
In this vital role, the Donor Relations Officer will develop and implement donor stewardship strategies that engage and recognize top donors, ensure stewardship best practices, and deepen donor relationships. The person in this role serves as a member of the development team and contributes to overall development strategies, is well-versed in Riverside’s mission and programs, and effectively represents the organization to our donors.
