The Aspen Leadership Group is proud to partner with the Hope for
Henry Foundation in the search for a Chief Development
Officer.
Reporting to the Chief Executive Officer and Founder, the Chief
Development Officer will join a world-class team that is a driving
force for change in how hospitals and other healthcare providers
care for children. The Chief Development Officer will guide the
vision and strategy for Hope for Henry’s continued growth from 30
to over 100 hospitals and foster a culture of philanthropy within
the organization that supports this critical work. The Chief
Development Officer will bring an energetic passion for Hope for
Henry’s mission and a track record of fundraising success to their
role. The Chief Development Officer will provide strategic input on
key organizational decisions, and partner with leaders from across
the organization to ensure a continued path for evolution, growth,
and impact.
The Chief Development Officer will provide leadership, strategy,
and management of all components of Hope for Henry’s fundraising
efforts. In the short-term, the Chief Development Officer will
develop and execute a strategy for doubling the current annual
revenue of $2 million over the next three years, including
overseeing a campaign to raise $5 million specifically to finance
Hope for Henry's expansion to 100 hospitals nationwide. In addition
to a high-touch stewardship and donor recognition program, the
Chief Development Officer will provide leadership on institutional,
corporate, and legacy giving strategies while personally managing a
small major gifts portfolio. The Chief Development Officer will be
Hope for Henry’s chief fundraising ambassador—partnering with the
Chief Executive Officer—to inspire and train staff and leadership
to further a culture of philanthropy. This is a highly
entrepreneurial opportunity which will allow the Chief Development
Officer to build and nurture a program that will significantly
increase support for Hope for Henry.
Hope for Henry is on a mission to reinvent how hospitals care for
children and their families. Using innovative, scientifically
tested programs, Hope for Henry helps hospitalized children
confront the challenges of serious illness, adhere to their medical
programs, and thrive. Hope for Henry incentivizes children to take
all the steps necessary to successfully complete demanding,
life-saving procedures that are often frightening for younger
patients. Since 2003, Hope for Henry has improved the lives of more
than 100,000 hospitalized children and is used in over 30 hospitals
nationwide. By 2026, this will expand to more than 100
hospitals.
In hospitals across the country, Hope for Henry programs are having
a positive impact on pediatric patients. Super Rewards for
Super Kids is a procedure-based incentive program that helps
children successfully complete challenging medical procedures like
proton beam therapy, MRIs, dressing changes, port access, and many
more. Super Rewards is the culmination of nearly twenty years of
research and applies principles of behavioral economics to
pediatric care. Robust evidence from hospital staff using the
program proves that it works. Children participating no longer rely
on sedation to complete necessary procedures, and patients and
families now have a much better understanding of what to expect
before a procedure because of the clear graphics and simple
descriptions.
A bachelor's degree of an equivalent combination of education and
experience is required for this position as is at least ten years
of leadership experience as part of a high-performing team. All
applications must be accompanied by a cover letter and résumé.
Cover letters should be responsive to the mission of the Hope for
Henry Foundation as well as the responsibilities and qualifications
presented in the prospectus.
The salary range for this position is $150,000 to $200,000
annually.
