Aspen Leadership Group is proud to partner with College of the
Holy Cross in the search for a Director of Corporate and Foundation
Relations.

Reporting to the Vice President for Advancement, the Director of
Corporate and Foundation Relations will raise funds from
foundations as well as government agencies and corporations in
support of the priority needs of the College of the Holy Cross and
its strategic vision for the future. The Director will engage in
careful and inventive prospect research, effective cultivation of
prospective funders, and strategic development of funding proposals
that reflect Holy Cross’s mission.

Holy Cross is a highly selective, four-year, undergraduate, liberal
arts institution and is ranked among the nation’s leading four-year
liberal arts colleges. Over time, Holy Cross has continuously
evolved to reflect the needs of its more than 3,000 students and
changing times. Its Jesuit, Catholic identity has remained a
constant throughout that evolution—informing and influencing
everything the college does.

As a liberal arts college, Holy Cross pursues excellence in
teaching, learning, and research. All members of the Holy Cross
community are challenged to be open to new ideas, to be patient
with ambiguity and uncertainty, and to combine a passion for truth
with respect for the views of others. Informed by the presence of
diverse interpretations of the human experience, Holy Cross seeks
to build a community marked by freedom, mutual respect, and
civility.

Holy Cross is proud to be recognized by publications and
organizations that cover higher education for its exceptional
academic programs, top professors, and great campus experiences.
Holy Cross is one of a select group of colleges (fewer than 100)
that meets 100% of each student’s demonstrated financial need. It
also received an “A” on Niche’s list of 2022 Best Colleges
in America and is among the 53 most beautiful college campuses in
America, according to Architectural Digest. Holy Cross was
also included on Princeton Review’s list of “Best 388
Colleges” and “Colleges That Pay You Back.” It is also listed among
the “best and most interesting colleges” in the Fiske Guide to
Colleges.

Holy Cross was named number one on the Institute for
International Education
’s list of long-term student abroad
programs and number four on Wall Street Journal’s list of
2022-23 best Catholic colleges in America. Money Magazine
named Holy Cross fifth on its list of “Best Value Liberal Arts
Colleges” and number 32 among “Best Colleges in America 2022.” The
institution is also tied for top spot in the nation for highest
graduation rates for student-athletes among NCAA Division I
schools.

Holy Cross also ensures success after graduation. As one of the top
producers of Fulbright students in the country, eight Holy Cross
students received fellowships during the 2021-22 academic year,
pushing the college’s total to 26 in the last four years. It is
also listed among colleges with the best return on investment,
according to U.S. News & World Report.

In every aspect of its community, Holy Cross champions diversity,
equity, and inclusion. As a Jesuit, Catholic liberal arts college,
it understands that the best way to understand the world is to
embrace the full spectrum of perspectives and life experiences. To
that end, Holy Cross welcomes students, staff, and faculty members
of every gender, race, religion, sexual orientation, socioeconomic
status, and gender identity. Holy Cross encourages all community
members to think critically about disparities in social structures,
and to act toward positive change.
