As a newly formed nonprofit Books to Kids is seeking help with development including cultivating individual donors, grant writing, and outreach.
The Books to Kids mission includes donating FREE books to children ages 0 to 12 years, helping children to find joy in reading and connecting children with their favorite authors & illustrators. Our annual premiere event, Children’s Festival of Stories, brings authors & illustrators from across the country to interact with Denver Metro area children using story time sessions, panel discussions and crafting workshops. In the last two years, over 70 authors & illustrators have visited Denver and connected with over 1000 children.
This is an worthwhile position with a good deal of potential in the Denver area. You will work independently and in our team setting to help a new nonprofit to grow and bring joy to an underprivileged population.
Everything we do, and want to do, is to promote and enrich children’s literacy - we need development assistance to continue to make this possible.
