Volunteer Development Associate/ Intern

The Volunteer Development Associate/Intern supports the fundraising and development functions of Limitless Disability Services, a licensed nonprofit adult day program serving adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) in Cherokee County, Georgia. This role is well suited for individuals with a background or interest in nonprofit development, grant writing, donor relations, or fundraising strategy who want to apply their skills in a mission-driven environment.

This is a flexible, largely remote role that offers meaningful hands-on experience with the full development cycle — from donor research and campaign support to event coordination and data management.

What You'll Do

As a Volunteer Development Associate, you will:

• Research and identify prospective donors, grant opportunities, and funding sources aligned with the Limitless mission
• Support the development and implementation of fundraising campaigns and donor outreach initiatives
• Assist with donor stewardship activities, including acknowledgment letters, thank-you correspondence, and donor recognition efforts
• Help maintain and update the donor database to ensure accurate, current records
• Contribute to the planning and execution of fundraising events, including logistics, promotion, and volunteer coordination
• Research fundraising best practices, emerging trends, and sector-specific strategies to inform organizational planning
• Assist in analyzing campaign performance data and preparing summary reports
• Collaborate with staff and leadership on creative fundraising concepts and proposals
• Provide general administrative support to the development function as needed

What to Expect

You will work closely with Limitless leadership and have the opportunity to see how a growing nonprofit manages development across multiple funding streams — including Medicaid waivers, individual donors, corporate sponsorships, and grant funding. This is a high-impact role: Limitless is actively expanding its programs and physical campus, and the development work you contribute to will directly support that growth.

Benefits

• Eligibility for the President's Volunteer Service Award, a nationally recognized honor for volunteer contributions
• Documentation provided for community service hours or academic credit
• Remote work available for most responsibilities
• Direct mentorship and professional development in nonprofit operations and fundraising

Skills and Qualities We're Looking For

• Genuine commitment to disability inclusion and the mission of Limitless
• Experience with grant writing, donor communications, or fundraising — or a strong willingness to develop these skills independently
• Strong written communication and research skills
• Attention to detail, particularly in data entry and record-keeping
• Ability to work independently and manage tasks with minimal supervision
