USTA PNW believes that the game of tennis is a vehicle that can

while instilling leadership and sportsmanship. The game also
teaches teamwork, life skills, and builds stronger families and
healthier communities. USTA PNW lives the mission daily, “To

people and communities everywhere.”
Philanthropic Vision and History
USTA PNW is seeking a leader to make our exciting 7-year
philanthropic vision a reality by building relationships and
supporting, nurturing and growing a culture of philanthropy.
Four years ago, our organization launched fundraising activities
that included efforts with individual donors, sponsors,
grant-writing, and special events. As a result, we developed a deep
pool of databases, tools, staff experience, granting body partners,
individual donors, some sponsors, and pilot program success.
Additionally, and perhaps most importantly, we learned that our
message of “Tennis is a vehicle that can transform lives” resonated
with donors and sponsors. We continually heard stories of how
tennis promotes life-long fitness and wellness, instills leadership
and sportsmanship, teaches teamwork and life skills, and builds
stronger families and healthier communities. Our primary
call-to-action is seeking support to provide accessibility of
tennis to children in every neighborhood across our
section.
Given this success in terms of establishing a baseline of funds
raised and engagement with prospective supporters, we are now ready
to build on this momentum and take our efforts to the next level.
The newly created CAO position will lead and develop the
strategies, pathway, and ongoing steps needed to achieve our
resource development vision.
The ideal candidate for this highly visible and externally
facing C-Suite role is a natural leader who is entrepreneurial,
innovative, organized, engaging, a builder, a self-starter, and a
promoter-salesperson-advocate. The CAO will spend the majority of
time 1) championing our story and “why”, 2) prospecting and
cultivating donors and sponsors, and 3) leading, aligning and
shaping the fundraising and marketing teams for the
future.
With resource development identified as one of our
organization’s core strategic priorities, the CAO position will
have significant organizational support, including a motivated
Board of Directors, executives with fundraising experience, 1.3
million tennis consumers, a more than 400 employees (including
full-time, part-time, seasonal) with a program and service
footprint covering four states (Oregon, Washington, Alaska, and
parts of Idaho), access to leverage large locally
economic-generating championship events, and deep partnerships
within the sports industry, municipalities, school districts, and
general community.
This is truly a unique opportunity to make an impact on children
and communities and leverage existing and untapped assets and
resources to build a legacy and something special.
