President, Give for the Future Fund

About Give for the Future Fund (GFF)

The United States faces enormous social, economic, and environmental challenges — challenges that demand innovation, durable solutions, and significantly more philanthropic capital. Yet while the needs grow, philanthropic resources are not keeping pace. The nonprofit sector continues to expand beyond the capacity of U.S. foundations, and at the same time, $17 trillion sits in the hands of 148,000 Ultra-High-Net-Worth individuals who currently give away only 0.5% of their wealth each year.

Give for the Future Fund was created to change this.

We are building a next-generation philanthropic engine designed to help unlock a potential trillion dollars annually in transformative giving. Our goal: to help catalyze a tripling of individual giving in the U.S. over the next decade.

We pursue this by combining world-class philanthropic infrastructure with strategic ecosystem investments. GFF partners with high-capacity philanthropists who want to accelerate their impact but lack the internal infrastructure or teams to do so.

Specifically, we provide high-quality, outsourced program delivery, re-granting, and fiscal sponsorship for the country's largest and most ambitious donors. We provide the expert engine to turn strategy into action, allowing donors to execute complex initiatives with speed and integrity–without the necessity of building up larger internal teams. Then, we reinvest surplus resources generated by this activity into mission-driven work to strengthen the entire philanthropic ecosystem. GFF’s core promise is to be an R&D partner for growing the field of philanthropy—supporting social entrepreneurs, training advisors, and activating a new wave of ambitious, values-aligned donors.

Anchored by a founding partnership with Bloomberg Philanthropies and Building Impact Partners, GFF is now moving from a successful founding era into a period of strategic growth and expanded impact where we will build the institutional architecture, talent, and partnerships required to scale a national movement aimed at achieving more meaningful giving.

The Opportunity

Give for the Future Fund (www.giveforthefuture.org) is hiring its first President—a senior executive who will serve as the CEO’s closest strategic partner and the enterprise leader responsible for turning vision into action at scale.

This is an opportunity to help build a new institution in American philanthropy—a non-profit public charity designed to unlock capital at unprecedented scale and reshape how giving happens in this country.

The President will serve as the business-building and operational architect for a game-changing organization. As President, you will be the essential partner to our visionary CEO, serving as the “Integrator” who translates GFF’s audacious vision and strategy into a scalable, field-leading enterprise. You will oversee both the revenue-generation efforts and the mission-driven field-building programs, ensuring all parts of the GFF flywheel are working in harmony to drive growth and impact.

This is a ground-floor leadership role for a builder who is both a gifted relationship strategist and a proven operator, poised to shape the future of a vital new institution in American philanthropy. Reporting to the CEO, the President will work closely with a highly engaged Board of Directors, two fractional team members as well as outsourced legal and financial specialists; we anticipate making three additional full-time hires and adding additional Board members in 2026.

The ideal candidate profile for our first President will bring the presence and experience to engage UHNW families and philanthropic institutions, the relationship instinct and know-how to build and cultivate a robust client pipeline, and the disciplined operating mindset required to integrate a fast-moving, growing organization.

While this role is fully remote, we anticipate some periodic overnight travel for prospective and current donor meetings (largely NYC and Bay Area), as well as 10 conferences a year.
