ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR OF PRINCIPAL GIFTS
LUCILE PACKARD FOUNDATION FOR CHILDREN'S HEALTH
Palo Alto, California
The Aspen Leadership Group is proud to partner with the Lucile
Packard Foundation for Children’s Health in the search for an
Associate Director of Principal Gifts.
Reporting to the Director, Principal Gifts, the Associate Director
of Principal Gifts, a new position, will work directly with a
portfolio of the Foundation’s most generous donors and high
potential prospects.
The 98-member Foundation team, which raised more than $190
million last year, is growing in order to cultivate and
steward a robust portfolio of approximately 500 donors and
prospects who have the potential to give gifts of $10 million or
more. The Foundation is currently in the quiet phase of a campaign,
which will allow for the continued growth of Stanford Children’s
Health as a leader in pediatric and obstetric care and research.
This is a time when innovation in child and maternal health is
flourishing, and the Principal Gifts team will drive the most
transformative gifts to the Hospital and School of Medicine.
The Lucile Packard Foundation for Children's Health, a wholly
independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, works to improve the
health and well-being of children and expectant mothers by
fundraising on behalf of Lucile Packard Children's Hospital
Stanford and the child and maternal health programs at Stanford
University School of Medicine.
Opened in 1991, Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford is the
heart and soul of Stanford Children’s Health. Nationally ranked and
internationally recognized, the 361-bed hospital is devoted
entirely to pediatrics and obstetrics. Its centers provide
comprehensive services and deep expertise in key obstetric and
pediatric areas: brain and behavior, cancer, heart, pregnancy and
newborn, pulmonary, orthopedics and sports medicine, and
transplant. It also provides an additional, wide range of services
for babies, children, and pregnant mothers. The hospital's main
building, which opened in December 2017, is the country’s most
technologically advanced, family-friendly, and environmentally
sustainable hospital for children and pregnant mothers.
Stanford University School of Medicine is a premier
research-intensive medical school that improves health through
leadership, collaborative discoveries, and innovation. The School
of Medicine consistently ranks among the nation’s top 10 medical
schools, integrating research, medical education, patient care, and
community service. The School of Medicine’s partnership with Lucile
Packard Children’s Hospital and Stanford Hospital & Clinics
facilitates the rapid translation of basic science into better
clinical care for patients of all ages.
The Lucile Packard Foundation for Children’s Health believes that a
workforce comprised of people from different backgrounds and
experiences makes it better at what it does. The collective sum of
the individual differences, life experiences, knowledge,
innovation, self-expression, unique capabilities, and talent that
the Foundation team brings to its work and the workplace represents
a significant part of not only its culture, but the Foundation’s
reputation as well.
The Foundation embraces and values its differences in age, color,
disability, ethnicity, family or marital status, language, national
origin, physical and mental ability, political affiliation, race,
religion, transgender status, gender identity or expression, sexual
orientation, socio-economic status, veteran status, and all of the
other characteristics that make each of us unique. It also
recognizes that not all differences are visible and everyone
deserves to be treated with respect and dignity regardless of
visible or invisible differences. All individuals are
welcome.
A bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience is required for this
position as is five to seven years of progressively responsible
fundraising experience. All applications must be accompanied
by a cover letter and résumé. Cover letters should be responsive to
the mission of the Lucile Packard Foundation for Children’s Health
to elevate the priority of children's health.
