About The YWCA

Since 1892, the YWCA of Northwest Ohio has been at the forefront of the most pressing social movements – from voting rights to civil rights, from affordable housing to pay equity, from violence prevention to health care reform.

Today, the city’s only emergency shelter for escaping domestic and intimate partner violence. It also operates as a rape crisis center, affordable housing provider, and an educational program provider for empowering women and ending racism.

The YWCA serves the most vulnerable among us: survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, and human trafficking; women transitioning out of homelessness; and women and families in need of safe, supportive housing.

The YWCA provides breast cancer education, services to mothers to combat issues of infant mortality, child care resources for parents and child care providers, and community education about eliminating systemic racism.

Core Responsibilities

  • Implements a newly designed and comprehensive fund development strategy with initial emphasis on building out the annual fund and creating a donor stewardship and cultivation (moves management) process.
  • Creates a solid infrastructure to support this strategy, to include a gift processing and acknowledgement system, donor database and software, website enhancements, etc.
  • Leads all donor cultivation, solicitation and recognition efforts, including prospect list creation, submission of monthly activity reports and updates to moves management strategies.
  • Manages a portfolio of 50-100 major donors and coordinates meetings between the CEO, board members and potential donors.

  • Develops healthy and productive relationships with all internal stakeholders and departments including staff, board members and volunteers. Works with leadership to grow an internal culture and commitment to philanthropy.
  • Builds healthy and productive relationships with external stakeholders including clients, community partners and donors. Ensures donors are not being over-solicited and communications with all are consistent.
