Director of Individual Giving and Donor Relations

Aspen Leadership Group is proud to partner with DAP Health in
the search for a Director of Individual Giving and Donor
Relations.

Reporting to the Chief Development Officer, the Director of
Individual Giving and Donor Relations will lead efforts to secure
financial support from individuals. The Director will meet
quarterly and annual goals by identifying, cultivating, soliciting,
and stewarding a diverse base of donors while leading a team
responsible for managing DAP Health’s mid-level giving program,
Partners for Life, and DAP Health’s Impact Programs, as well as
donor communications, stewardship planning, and gift planning. The
Director will partner with the Chief Development Officer in the
creation and successful execution of a substantial and sustainable
individual giving program while working in close partnership with
other members of the development team. The Director will also work
closely with DAP Health’s brand marketing team and the Senior
Director of Development, Events and Operations, to fully leverage
DAP Health’s outreach activities and events to meaningfully engage
prospective and current donors.

Founded in 1984 by a group of community volunteers in the face of
the AIDS crisis, today DAP Health is a Federally Qualified Health
Center (FQHC) with the goal of improving the overall health of the
entire community, especially the disenfranchised. DAP Health
provides comprehensive, culturally competent, quality primary and
preventative health care services including primary medical care,
infectious disease care, dentistry, behavioral health, and
affordable housing all on one campus. 

The Coachella Valley is characterized by a significantly wide
disparity in income levels and most of DAP Health’s clients are
low-income, medically underserved community members. In DAP
Health’s nearest service area, more than 50% of the population is
living under 200% of the Federal Poverty Level. In addition to
economic disadvantage, food, and housing insecurity, as well as
health disparities such as diabetes, mental illness, cardiovascular
disease, and substance abuse are prevalent. A growing aging
population and limited employment opportunities add to the
complexity of need. With more than 10,000 patients currently in DAP
Health’s care, and half impacted by HIV/AIDS, the organization
continues to see more than 100 new patients each month and knows
that the need is even greater than what can currently be
provided.

DAP Health ensures access to care by offering a sliding fee scale
for income-qualified individuals who are uninsured. The
organization’s range of services help address urgent needs, as well
as provide a foundation for patients to achieve positive health
outcomes and fulfill the goals that they have for their lives. DAP
Health further removes barriers by providing services which include
primary medical care; HIV and Hepatitis specialty care; dental
care; individual and group mental health and substance abuse
services; prescriptions filled at the in-house pharmacy; assistance
with food, utilities, and transportation for qualified clients;
programs that support permanent and emergency housing needs;
community-wide, free HIV and Hepatitis C testing, education, and
early intervention services; and more. 

All applications must be accompanied by a cover letter and résumé.
Cover letters should be responsive to the mission of DAP Health as
well as the responsibilities and qualifications presented in the
prospectus. A bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of
education and experience is preferred for this position as is at
least five years of non-profit fundraising experience, with
experience in healthcare fundraising preferred. DAP Health will
consider candidates with a broad range of backgrounds. If you are
excited about this role and feel that you can contribute to the DAP
Health, but your experience does not exactly align with every
qualification listed above, we encourage you to apply.

The salary range for this position is $115,000 to $126,000
annually.

DAP Health is committed to the inclusion of all qualified
candidates. If you require reasonable accommodation in completing
