Image result for The Salvation Army of Eastern Pennsylvania and Delaware logoThe Salvation Army Eastern Pennsylvania and Delaware (PenDel) Division, headquartered in Philadelphia, PA, is offering an exceptional fundraiser the opportunity to be a part of its 150-year legacy of doing good, fighting poverty, and transforming lives as the Director of Advancement.

The Salvation Army PenDel division is recruiting a Director of Advancement to join a remarkable 150+ year history of Doing the Most Good and helping families to break the cycle of poverty through programs and services that transform lives. While The Salvation Army benefits from an unsurpassed philanthropic brand, increased need and increased competition required a change in strategy to fulfill its mission. In this context, Divisional Leaders have invested in recruiting a new Director of Advancement to spearhead a systemic major gifts strategy which “lifts all boats” to continually increase direct mail, planned-giving, and institutional events support. 

The new Director of Advancement (DoA) will be an essential part of the PenDel Leadership Team. This person will lead all elements of the Divisional Development Department, including fund raising (major gifts, planned-giving, direct marketing, digital fund raising, corporate giving, foundation grants), public relations, marketing and advertising, social media, volunteerism and board engagement. The division currently raises approximately $25M a year, and the DoA will be charged with significantly growing that number. He/she will work cooperatively with the Territorial Director of Advancement and Territorial Community Relations and Development (CRD) staff to adhere to and implement territorial CRD programs, practices, and policies (e.g. major gifts, planned giving, donor data management, direct mail, digital). Reporting to the new Divisional Commander, Lt. Colonel Larry Ashcraft, the DoA will supervise all Divisional Development personnel. Initial goals will be revised within the first 3 months in collaboration with the Divisional Headquarters and TSA Eastern Regional Headquarters.
