Power To Be is looking for a Grants Officer to help fuel programs that create access to nature for youth, families, and adults living with cognitive, physical, financial, and social barriers. Through inclusive, nature-based programs, we support people to explore their limitless abilities, build connection, and experience the outdoors in ways that are safe, welcoming, and full of possibility. As our Grants Officer, you’ll play a key role in making that work possible by connecting funders to the stories, outcomes, and community impact behind our mission.

You’ll help coordinate Power To Be’s grants program from start to finish: researching new opportunities, preparing compelling proposals, gathering the right documents, tracking deadlines, coordinating reports, and stewarding relationships with foundation, corporate, and public sector partners. You’ll work closely with the Fundraising team, spend time learning from staff and programs, and translate what you see into explicit, grounded, funder-aligned writing. other days you’ll be connecting with colleagues, reviewing program outcomes, supporting stewardship materials, or helping shape thoughtful grant strategies. This role is about more than writing applications.

It’s about helping people understand why this work matters, what is possible when barriers are removed, and how their support can create real and lasting impact. Compile application materials, including budgets, budget justifications, staff allocations, and required forms. Build and maintain respectful relationships with funders, colleagues, volunteers, and community partners.

Support donor stewardship processes and help keep funders connected to the impact of their support. Collaborate with Finance, Programs, and Fundraising colleagues to develop accurate and thoughtful submissions. Support CRM data integrity, fundraising procedures, and fiscally responsible practices.





Engage in Power To Be programs at least once per quarter so your writing stays connected to the work on the ground. You enjoy building relationships and working collaboratively, but you’re also comfortable taking initiative and moving work forward independently. You may have a background in fundraising, grant writing, communications, technical writing, non-profit work, or another related field.

Three to five years of experience in fundraising, grant writing, communications, technical writing, or a related field. Excellent written communication skills and the ability to adapt writing for different funders and audiences. Comfort using Microsoft 365, databases, CRM systems, or other digital tools.

Comfort using AI tools to support research, drafting, editing, and efficiency while applying strong human judgment, accuracy, confidentiality, and care. This is primarily an office-based role, with most work completed through writing, research, meetings, and collaboration. From time to time, the Grants Officer may join or support Power To Be programs in the field, which may include working outdoors in varied weather conditions and occasional evening, weekend, or overnight hours.
