Stewardship and Engagement Director: The Community Foundation

Salary range: $30-40/hour

Who We Are:

For over 40 years, The Community’s Foundation (TCF) has strengthened the quality of life in the Delaware County region. Founded as the Taylor Community Foundation, TCF connects donors, volunteers, and nonprofits to the causes they care about most, creating lasting impact through grants, programs, and scholarships. Managing more than 50 charitable funds — including Donor Advised Funds, Field of Interest Funds, nonprofit Agency Funds, and fiscal sponsorships for over two dozen community groups — TCF awards over $1 million each year to support student scholarships, local nonprofits, and community programs. Through initiatives like the Health Professions Scholarship Program (now in its 25th year) and a broad range of grants, TCF empowers individuals and organizations to give back in meaningful ways while building a stronger, more vibrant, and equitable Delaware County. 

What You Will Get:

You’ll join a mission-driven, collaborative team dedicated to making a lasting impact in Delaware County. At TCF, you’ll work in a supportive environment where creativity, initiative, and community engagement are valued. This role offers the opportunity to lead high-impact donor stewardship and engagement initiatives, shape meaningful programs, and see the direct results of your work in the community.
