At Compassion House Foundation, we provide a supportive home away from home for women who must travel to Edmonton for cancer treatment. We are seeking a skilled fundraiser and thoughtful relationship builder who is inspired by our mission and excited to connect donors with meaningful impact.

Position Summary

Compassion House Foundation is seeking a motivated, relationship-driven Manager of Philanthropy to strengthen and grow our philanthropic work. Reporting to the Executive Director, this full-time role plays an integral part in fostering meaningful donor relationships, supporting annual giving initiatives, and building thoughtful stewardship strategies that enhance donor retention and engagement. The Manager of Philanthropy will lead a relational donor strategy and support annual campaigns, proposal development, and donor stewardship. With a strong focus on personalized stewardship and donor experience, this role contributes to fundraising initiatives that help ensure women who must travel to Edmonton for cancer treatment can access affordable accommodations, shuttle service to and from medical appointments, and wellness activities during their stay.

This position is primarily Monday to Friday, with occasional flexibility required for evening or weekend events. The role is mainly on site and includes off-site meetings and some work-related travel, typically within Alberta.

Key Responsibilities

Donor Stewardship & Relationship Management

· Lead the development and execution of donor stewardship plans, ensuring timely, personalized recognition and impact reporting.

· Draft and coordinate donor communications including thank-you letters, milestone notes, and donor impact stories.

· Collaborate with leadership to identify and implement strategies for donor retention and upgrades.

· Monitor and track donor touchpoints and relationship histories in Raiser’s Edge NXT.

Annual Giving & Campaign Support

· Assist in the planning, creation, and delivery of annual giving campaigns, including direct mail, digital appeals, and monthly giving programs.

· Support segmentation and messaging tailored to different donor groups.

· Work with communications colleagues to align campaign messages with the organization’s mission and priorities.

Proposal & Grant Development

· Assist in preparing customized donor proposals and case statements for individual and institutional donors.

· Conduct prospect research on individuals, foundations, and corporate partners.

· Support grant tracking and application preparation as needed, in collaboration with the Grant Writer.

Database Support

· Maintain accurate donor records and interactions within Raiser’s Edge NXT.

· Generate donor reports and mailing lists for stewardship and solicitation purposes.

· Respond to donor inquiries with professionalism, care, and timely follow-up.

· Support the development team in ensuring consistent donor recognition and recordkeeping.

Advancing a Culture of Philanthropy

· Collaborate with staff across departments to share impact stories and collect program data for donor reporting.

· Assist with coordinating volunteer needs related to fundraising initiatives (e.g., thank-you calls, mailings).

· Participate in team planning and strategy sessions to align fundraising priorities and goals.

Ideal Candidate

You are a compassionate communicator who takes pride in building lasting relationships. You understand that stewardship is more than a thank-you. It’s about showing donors the meaningful impact of their support. You are detail-oriented, organized, and committed to strengthening community through philanthropy.

Qualifications and Skills

· 2–3 years of experience in fundraising, donor relations, or nonprofit development.

· Strong interpersonal skills with a sincere interest in donor engagement and relationship-building.

· Excellent writing and editing skills with an ability to craft compelling and personalized donor communications.

· Solid organizational and time management skills; able to manage multiple priorities with attention to detail.

· Experience with CRM systems (e.g., Raiser’s Edge NXT) and proficiency in Microsoft Office.

· Knowledge of annual giving strategies, stewardship best practices, and donor-centric fundraising principles.

· Valid driver’s license and access to a reliable vehicle to support donor meetings, events, and other work-related travel.

· Familiarity with grant writing and prospect research is an asset.

· Understanding of CRA charitable receipting rules is an asset.

· Post-secondary education or professional training in fundraising, nonprofit management, communications, marketing, business, or a related field is an asset; equivalent experience will also be considered.

How to Apply

Interested candidates are invited to submit a resume and cover letter outlining their interest and relevant experience. Compassion House Foundation is committed to creating a respectful, inclusive, and welcoming workplace. We thank all applicants for their interest; however, only those selected for an interview will be contacted.
