The Light We Carry Foundation is a nonprofit dedicated to supporting families experiencing pregnancy, infant, and child loss.

As we prepare to expand our services in 2027, we're looking for a proactive volunteer to help identify funding opportunities and build a sustainable foundation for our programs.

What You'll Help With:

• Research grants, corporate giving programs, and nonprofit funding opportunities.
• Identify funders whose priorities align with our mission.
• Track eligibility requirements, deadlines, and application details.
• Help prepare grant application drafts and supporting materials.
• Build an organized funding calendar for 2027.
• Share promising opportunities with our founder for review and approval.

You'd Be a Great Fit If You:

• Enjoy research, writing, and organization.
• Are detail-oriented and comfortable meeting deadlines.
• Take initiative and can work independently.
• Have an interest in nonprofit development or fundraising.

Grant writing experience is helpful but not required.

Our Goal: Build a prioritized list of funding opportunities and a grant application calendar ready for December review.

We're hoping to onboard someone as soon as possible. This is a flexible volunteer opportunity with the potential for continued involvement as our Foundation grows.

Honoring every story. Every light.
