Following a successful $12,000,000 campaign, The River opened our new facility in February and now we are building a best-in-class development team to fuel our next chapter of impact. Our Community Engagement Manager role is more than a fundraising position—it is an opportunity to join an extraordinary community, build meaningful relationships, inspire generosity, and directly support individuals and families facing food insecurity.

We are seeking top-tier talent who care deeply about people, believe in the power of community, and are motivated by the opportunity to connect generous donors with life-changing work.

Partner with communications staff on event promotion across email, social media, and press.
Track event revenue and expenses against budget; provide post-event analysis and recommendations.
In collaboration with colleagues, support or lead direct mail and digital appeal campaigns (e.g., fall appeal, year-end, Giving Tuesday).
