Get Involved with the McDowell Foundation Fundraising Committee

Volunteering with a non-profit can support the development of leadership skills, encourage professional research in the province, and be a great way to meet others who are passionate about public education.

The McDowell Foundation is currently looking for volunteers to join its fundraising committee.

The Fundraising Committee is an action committee that is responsible for assisting the McDowell Foundation in planning, coordinating, and implementing all fundraising activities in the support of the projects and associations of the Foundation.

Typical Roles and Responsibilities:

  • Attend regular committee meetings (2-4 times per year)
  • Develop, recommend, and update short- and long-term fundraising plans and goals.
  • Review the costs and returns that can be expected based on the type(s) of fundraising the Committee is considering undertaking.
  • Identify existing and potential sponsors, funders, or donors and collaborate to steward those connections.
  • Select the best fundraising approaches considering the Foundation’s fundraising goals, projected costs, current resources, and projected expenditures on charitable activities.

What We’re Looking For:

  • Someone who is passionate about public education and research in Saskatchewan.
  • Past fundraising or financial experience is considered an asset, but not required.

If you’re interested in joining this committee or for more information please contact the foundation at mcdowell@stf.sk.ca
