Gift Planning Officer; ARC

Each day, thousands of people – people just like you – provide compassionate care to those in need. Our network of generous donors, volunteers and employees share a mission of preventing and relieving suffering, here at home and around the world.

American Red Cross volunteers roll up our sleeves and donate time, money and blood. We learn or teach life-saving skills so our communities can be better prepared when the need arises. We do this every day because the Red Cross is needed - every day.

Our mission is to prevent and alleviate human suffering in the face of emergencies by mobilizing the power of volunteers and the generosity of donors.

The Gift Planning Unit at the American Red Cross is adding a Gift Planning Officer in the San Francisco Bay Area. We seek to secure planned gifts supporting any component of the organization's mission and to establish the Red Cross as the charity of choice for such gifts. Reporting to the Director of Gift Planning, the Gift Planning Officer develops, designs, and implements the planned giving program for the parts of the Northern California Regions of the American Red Cross, focusing on new gift commitments for the organization.

This role includes identifying, qualifying, cultivating, soliciting, and stewarding gift planning prospects and donors in the Region. The Gift Planning Officer will be responsible for developing strategies to increase funding capacity and maximize donor relationships.
