25-26 Coach Across America Development VISTA

Established in 2010, Coach Across America (CAA) is the nationwide leader in engaging, training and supporting sports coaches to transform youth, programs and communities. Our AmeriCorps coaching program is the first national service program that challenges young adults to give back to their communities through a year of service as coach-mentors. CAA's research, training and on-the-ground initiatives empower sports programs across the country to become a united force for meaningful change. To date, CAA has reached over 600,000 youth by placing over 3,000 coaches in underserved urban communities. The CAA Development VISTA will play an integral role in prospect research, grant submissions, fundraising campaigns, and data entry/systems and monitoring. This will ensure that CAA has the necessary funds to continue providing life-changing coach-mentors to underserved youth in the communities we serve. The Development Team is a close-nit group, and the Development VISTA will be able to learn virtually all aspects of nonprofit work. If you¿re interested in a sustained future in nonprofits, this is an opportunity like no other. Qualified candidates will have a bachelor's degree, a passion for the mission of CAA, and previous volunteer experience. Fundraising, marketing, or sales experience is preferred but not required. The candidate will be an organized self-starter, work well under pressure, be a strong writer, and have a curiosity for learning about development, marketing, and events. The position is a one-year term (with potential to renew for a second year) and starts in August of 2025. For more information about CAA, visit www.CoachAcrossAmerica.org
