Position: Development Director,&nbsp;Start date: October 20, 2025
The LoveYourBrain Foundation is a US-based nonprofit that improves the mental, physical, and social well-being of people with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and caregivers. Since 2014, we’ve been pioneering the use of mindfulness, yoga, psychoeducation, nutrition, and community-building programs for healing, advancing the science behind our holistic approach in clinical and community-based settings, and re-imagining how people can actively participate in their healing. This is an exciting time for our organization--we’ve recently reached our 10-year anniversary, refining our strategic vision, and our Executive Director was recently recognized as a Top Ten CNN Hero.
Position Summary: The Development Director is instrumental in growing and overseeing LoveYourBrain’s multifaceted fundraising activities. As part of the leadership team and critical thought partner to the Executive Director, the position develops, implements, and manages a comprehensive fundraising strategy to achieve the goal of 15-20% financial growth annually.
