RIFC Grants & Fundraising VISTA
Rhode Island Free Clinic is nationally recognized for its volunteer and community partner model. We believe in strengthening our community by providing people with the resources, education, and support they need to improve their health and well-being. The Clinic also serves as a training site for more than 150 healthcare trainees annually. Services are provided at our 8,000-square-foot facility in Providence. The Clinic raises 100% of its operating budget through philanthropic support and leverages millions of dollars in donated healthcare services, medications, and volunteer expertise to provide comprehensive medical, dental, specialty, medication access, and wellness services to low-income, uninsured Rhode Islanders. The Rhode Island Free Clinic seeks a highly motivated Grants & Fundraising VISTA to strengthen and expand the Clinic''s fundraising capacity. Building on the work of previous VISTA members, this individual will identify, research, and pursue grant and fundraising opportunities from foundation, corporate, government, and individual giving sources. The VISTA will support grant writing, prospect research, donor stewardship, sponsorship development, and fundraising campaigns. Working closely with the Deputy Director, Administrative & Development Senior Manager, and Data VISTA, the Grants & Fundraising VISTA will help develop compelling proposals supported by strong program data and outcomes. The VISTA will also assist with planning and implementing in-person and virtual fundraising events to strengthen donor engagement, community partnerships, and long-term sustainability. Through these capacity-building efforts, the Grants & Fundraising VISTA will help secure resources that sustain and expand access to healthcare for Rhode Island''s uninsured adults.
