Fundraising Lead /Donor Engagement Lead

Job Description: About JAAP: JAAP is a philanthropic platform that mobilizes Jain capital toward Ahimsa-aligned impact, bridging ancient Jain values with modern causes like plant-based innovation, education, and compassion-driven philanthropy. We are building a movement where Jain giving truly reflects our deepest principle: non-violence not just in prayer, but in practice. Through a membership-based giving circle and an open Ahimsa fund, JAAP enables individuals, families, and businesses to direct their giving toward strategic, high-impact projects that promote non-violence, health, dignity, and compassion for all beings. Role Overview: This is not a typical fundraising or operations role. You will work directly with the Founder to bring JAAP's mission to life - part strategist, part doer, and full-time believer in the power of Ahimsa to drive change. If you are someone who takes initiative, thrives in start-up-style environments, and believes in the power of values-driven giving, this is your place. Key Responsibilities: - Fundraising & Donor Engagement - Lead membership and fundraising drives for JAAP's giving circle. - Build and maintain strong relationships with Jain families, entrepreneurs, and aligned donors. - Develop clear, transparent communication for donors - impact reports, presentations, and updates. - Identify and nurture partnerships with like-minded NGOs, foundations, and social enterprises. - Support the Founder in donor outreach, events, and strategic fundraising efforts. - Operations & Impact Coordination - Build and manage internal systems for project tracking, fund disbursal, and reporting. - Coordinate with grantee organizations to ensure accountability and transparency. - Support communication, logistics, and execution for key JAAP initiatives and events. - Serve as the Founder's right hand - bridging vision and execution with initiative and care. Qualifications Required: - Have 4-8 years of experience in fundraising, donor relations, partnerships, or non-profit operations. - Be proactive, dependable, and comfortable taking ownership in a growing organization. - Communicate with empathy, professionalism, and clarity. - Be aligned with the values of non-violence, compassion, and sustainability. - Have a strong interest in philanthropy, social impact, or value-driven business. - Thrive in environments with purpose, autonomy, and heart.
