- 2-year commitment,
- meet a minimum donation/fundraising goal of $1000,

Digital Marketing: We seek someone with verifiable success in this area to build our social media presence (ideally conversions off social media to donate or volunteer, and to reach childhood cancer families to offer services), improve Google ads and create new campaigns (via Google Ad Grants, goals for donations, volunteers, corporate gifts/volunteers, hospital staff, and childhood cancer families), and advising on best strategies for emailing audiences versus paid social media ads.
About FADF:
The For a Day Foundation celebrates 20 years of service to kids with cancer (& other serious illnesses) through quality of life services & experiences. As a Board member, you will support on-going activities through fundraising & by lending your professional skills/experience. You will help shape future policy that creates credibility within the pediatric cancer community & amongst the general public.
Pre-Covid, we hosted themed parties in hospital playrooms, like Queen & Hero for a Day. Since social distancing restrictions, we've pivoted to sending STEAM activity kits to our partner facilities and fulfilling quality of life requests for individual families and patients.
