    Job Description

The successful candidate will be responsible for producing timely, accurate, and thoughtful acknowledgments and receipts, assisting in the development and delivery of donor cultivation, and stewardship communications and activities.

    This is an exciting time for NPF as we are in the quiet phase of a landmark campaign designed to mobilize the efforts of the 400+ park partner community in support of the National Park System. This "collective campaign" will result in more money raised for the parks, more impact in the parks, and increased capacity of park partners. This unique approach to supporting national parks will create fundraising urgency and opportunities of national significance.

    WORKING AT NPF

    The National Park Foundation works in partnership with the National Park Service (NPS) to enrich America's national parks through private support, safeguarding our heritage and inspiring generations of national park enthusiasts. Chartered by Congress in 1967, the National Park Foundation is founded on a legacy that began more than a century ago, when private citizens from all walks of life took action to establish and protect our national parks.

    Today, NPF carries on that tradition as the only national charitable nonprofit whose mission is to directly support more than 400 national park sites across the country. As the National Park Service's official nonprofit partner, the National Park Foundation supports projects and programs across the system. We protect our natural, cultural, and historical heritage and connect people to all that the parks have to offer through our work.
