After School Matters is looking for a volunteer to help us process our donations and enter them into our Raiser's Edge fundraising database.
What is Raiser's Edge? Raiser's Edge is fundraising software & a donor management database for nonprofits. The Development department at After School Matters uses it to manage relationships with and gifts from our donors and other supporters.
Who would be an ideal candidate to volunteer on this project? This is a great volunteer opportunity for someone who is a current student, recent grad, or in a career transition into the nonprofit sector and desires to learn Raiser's Edge. Having experience with this database is a great resume-booster!
What does the committment look like? We are looking for a volunteer who has one morning or afternoon per week to dedicate to the project. Our business hours are M-F, 9am-5pm, so potential volunteers would just need to specify what day/time within those hours would work best for them.
