Donor Relations

About This Role

Are you someone who enjoys building meaningful, long-term relationships and expressing gratitude in thoughtful ways? The Stoic Fellowship is looking for a volunteer to help nurture our community of supporters by serving as a bridge between donors and the mission they care about. As a Donor Relations volunteer, you’ll help ensure our contributors feel appreciated, informed, and inspired by the impact of their support.

This role is ideal for someone who believes in personal connection, clear communication, and sustaining generosity over time.

Responsibilities

• Help build and maintain relationships with individual donors, recurring supporters, and campaign contributors
• Coordinate thank-you messages, milestone acknowledgments, or periodic donor updates
• Collaborate with fundraising and communications volunteers to share stories of impact
• Track donor engagement and assist in creating thoughtful stewardship plans
• Collect informal feedback from donors to help improve future fundraising efforts
• Maintain alignment with Stoic virtues—especially gratitude, justice, and temperance—in all interactions

Ideal Qualities

• Passion for Stoicism and an appreciation for the generosity of others
• Warm, clear communication style and an eye for thoughtful details
• Organized and reliable, with the ability to follow through on outreach tasks
• Experience in donor stewardship, relationship-building, or customer service (a plus, but not required)
• Discretion and care when handling personal donor information
• Enjoys helping others feel seen and connected to a greater purpose

Time Commitment

This is a flexible volunteer role. We ask for a commitment of 5–10 hours per month, though some periods (e.g. post-campaign follow-up) may be slightly busier. A great role for those who value consistency and connection.

Benefits of Volunteering

• Play a key role in sustaining the generosity that supports TSF’s mission
• Build meaningful relationships with supporters from around the world
• Develop skills in donor stewardship, community-building, and impact storytelling
• Collaborate with a values-aligned and appreciative volunteer team
• Earn public recognition, volunteer badges, and the opportunity to be featured in TSF communications
