Kate’s Club’s vision is to create a world in which it’s okay to grieve, and we want you to join us in this work. We are a community for children, families, and young adults experiencing the death of someone important to them. The organization brings people together around grief, creating safe - both in-person and online - educational, recreational and therapeutic spaces designed to help everyone express the emotions that come with such a loss. We are growing our programs to help expand the support of those who are grieving, and we want your help.
Do you have a knack for engaging others?
We are seeking a thoughtful, caring individual who can manage several projects simultaneously. As the Program and Volunteer Coordinator, you will be an integral team member. You will lead our efforts to expand our reach to those who are grieving by coordinating our young adult program, LoKate, and you will lead our efforts to attract and engage a diverse and vibrant group of volunteers. You will also participate in and support our family activities, from membership engagement to program execution.
