"As much as I know the market has embraced AgentsC, I also believe that there are some organizations, because of the makeup of AgentsC and because of the activism of its founder and CEO, kind of make a choice not to work with or partner or invite us to support their work. But I also just celebrate those who have partnered with us and come to us and sought our help and expertise. And that's where I put the lens." - Olumide Akerewusi
Olumide (Mide) Akerewusi talks to Tim about the Giving Black Conference and the dynamic of Black philanthropy as it relates to the larger philanthropic sector. They also discuss the events within the AFP Toronto Chapter and the lessons that need to be learned to move forward as a community.
Black Opportunity Fund (BOF) has engaged AgentsC Inc. to recruit a talented senior fundraiser with a proven track record of Major Gifts fundraising in the role of Senior Development Officer (SDO). The ideal candidate will have strong leadership skills and significantly grow major gift fundraising revenue for BOF. In partnership with the Executive Director and the Board of Directors, the SDO will accelerate momentum to build sustainable philanthropic partnerships for BOF. Successful achievement of BOF’s fundraising goals will also present a career development opportunity for the SDO to build the capacity of BOF’s fund development program and grow into a new role of Director of Fundraising at the organization.
