Remote Volunteer Event Fundraiser — Cougs 4 Kids

Help Cougs 4 Kids build ethical fundraising support for approved remote and optional Seattle-area events serving underserved youth and young people.

The volunteer Event Fundraiser will coordinate approved event-specific outreach, peer fundraising, donor follow-up, and stewardship without handling funds or making unauthorized promises.

Responsibilities:

• Work from approved event goals, audiences, messages, giving methods, budgets, deadlines, and recognition plans
• Build qualified outreach lists using consented or approved sources
• Prepare personalized invitations, peer-fundraising resources, reminders, and thank-you messages
• Coordinate with sponsorship, donor relations, crowdfunding, marketing, and event leads to prevent duplicate contact
• Use only approved donation pages, links, QR codes, UTM parameters, and payment instructions
• Track outreach, responses, commitments, restrictions, receipts or payment handoffs, and stewardship
• Protect donor, sponsor, participant, volunteer, and payment-related information
• Avoid tax advice, pressure, misleading urgency, benefit promises, participant access, or accepting funds personally
• Escalate restricted gifts, complaints, conflicts, fraud concerns, or payment problems

Qualifications:

• Experience in fundraising, events, peer campaigns, donor outreach, sales, community engagement, communications, or nonprofit development
• Strong relationship-building, writing, organization, discretion, and follow-through
• Comfort with CRM systems, spreadsheets, email, social media, and virtual meetings
• At least 21 years old and willing to complete screening
• Ability to follow gift-acceptance, privacy, brand, and youth-safeguarding boundaries

This is a remote, project-based or recurring role available within the United States. Expect approximately 3–7 hours per month during active campaigns.
