This is a Board of Directors Position
The Chair of our capital campaign is a key volunteer leadership/board position that drives the efforts to raise initial funding for Indigo Acres, a new property on which a brick and mortar facility will be developed. This position will receive heavy support from the Board President, Executive Director and full Board of Directors.
The Campaign Chair is responsible for the following tasks:
Forming a Campaign Committee: With support of the Volunteer Chairman and the full board, the Campaign Chair's first major responsibility is to recruit a Campaign Committee consisting of board members, volunteers, donors and community supporters of animal welfare.
Coordinating Committee Activities: The Campaign Chair is responsible for calling and running meetings (in person or via Zoom) of the Campaign Committee, enlisting additional volunteers in the campaign efforts (as needed, with the help of the Volunteer Chairman), ensuring that decisions and proposed actions are reported to the committee and reporting the Committee activities to the Board of Directors.
Creating & Executing the Capital Campaign Plan: In concert with the full board, the campaign chair has overall responsibility for creating and executing the campaign plan and functions as the campaign's chief operating officer, with the support of board, staff and volunteers. Their primary function is to coordinate all fundraising efforts for the capital campaign, including:
Accountability:
The Chair reports to the President of the Board of Directors. Major decisions about the campaign plan must be approved by the full board.
Estimated time commitment:
This position will terminate upon reaching the proposed goal, and will then revert to an at-large position on the Indigo Board of Directors. Time required during the campaign will vary depending on the timing of special events, but we estimate a minimum time investment (including monthly board meetings) of 6-10 hours per week.
