As the Development Office Assistant Volunteer, you will support the Sempervirens Fund Development team with administrative tasks that strengthen relationships with our existing donor base. Under direct supervision of the Donor Services Coordinator, this position requires a comfort level with both physical tasks - such as packaging and operating the printer - and digital tasks, including database management and working with Microsoft Excel.

This role plays a critical part in streamlining the Development team’s processes and donor cultivation efforts.

Mission Statement

Sempervirens Fund’s mission is to protect and permanently preserve redwood (Sequoia sempervirens) forests, wildlife habitat, watersheds, and other important natural and scenic features of California’s Santa Cruz Mountains, and to encourage public appreciation and enjoyment of this environment.

Description

Sempervirens Fund protects, connects and cares for the local redwood forests between Silicon Valley and the Pacific Ocean - while we open up more ways for people to enjoy them. Since 1900, Sempervirens Fund has permanently protected more than 53 square miles of local redwood forests and watersheds for people, wildlife and future generations. As California’s oldest land trust and the only organization focused entirely on this local redwood forest, Sempervirens Fund works on behalf of the community to re-establish a vast, beautiful, accessible redwood world that provides crucial refuge and recreation in our own backyard.
