Overall Goal:
To support the executive director and AHNow board in executing the annual fundraising plan.
Are you an experienced fundraiser? Are you interested in fundraising and want to develop your skills? Animal Help Now is expanding its fundraising team to put greater emphasis on peer-to-peer campaigns, corporate giving, and grant writing. We are looking for people who strongly support our mission and who are professional, highly competent, and operate well both independently and in a team environment. Animal Help Now is poised to capitalize on its sweat equity, having historically devoted significantly more resources to innovation than to fundraising and producing for a very low cost - thanks to low overhead and the high contributions of volunteers - a product that positively impacts tens of thousands of animal lives a year and raises the quality of life for people across the United States. Due to the diversity in opportunities on the fundraising team, we are listing no requirements on this posting, but we do know we will benefit from people who bring good communication skills, high ethics, and creative thinking. Successful candidates will be prepared to volunteer at least three hours a week, including attending a weekly web meeting.

Description
Animal Help Now (AHNow) creates apps that help animals. The org’s eponymous app provides a 911-type service for wildlife emergencies & conflicts. Each year in the U.S. billions of birds and other wild animals are killed or injured by cats & dogs, window strikes, etc. and hundreds of millions of animals are injured or killed by motor vehicles. This free app directs people who have encountered injured or distressed wildlife or are dealing with "nuisance" wildlife to the nearest, most appropriate help, 24/7. The first nationwide response system for wildlife emergencies, it provides instant access to more than 3700 wildlife helpers across the United States, including rehabilitators, rescues & hotlines, veterinarians who treat wildlife & others. AHNow provides expert guidance on how to handle domestic animal issues (lost, found, abuse, etc.).
In 2022, in the aftermath of the Marshall Fire (12/30/2021), which claimed an estimated 1,000 companion animal lives and destroyed Animal Help Now’s headquarters, the organization began development of a new app that people can use to quickly and effectively communicate with their neighbors when disasters threaten and strike. The app provides a dedicated communications channel specifically for pet rescue so people who are not home or who otherwise need help evacuating animals can quickly and easily request such help. PHaR will give pets and other dependent animals their best chance yet of surviving when disasters strike.
