Posting #: 2022-01

Digital Philanthropy Coordinator (Full-Time, Permanent)

The opportunity

Join one of the Top 100 Charity Organizations today! Since 2010, Charity Intelligence has awarded Eva’s with the highest rating available based on financial transparency, accountability to donors and cost-efficiency.

Eva’s turns youth homelessness into home 

Black and Indigenous youth and young people of colour are overrepresented in homeless shelters and transitional homes in Toronto.  They face higher rates of housing insecurity and barriers to accessing long-term housing due to the legacy of colonialism and anti-Black racism.

Eva’s is rooted in the principles of social justice. If you have a history of working in social justice; have experience working in homelessness and/or housing; and want to be a leader in one of Toronto’s most pressing social issues, read on.

By working with Eva’s, you’ll be doing more than helping give youth shelter. You’ll be giving them strength for the future.

This position reports to the Senior Director, Philanthropy and will be working remotely until a return-to-work plan is implemented.

Applicants are encouraged to apply as soon as possible. Interviews will be conducted on a rolling basis.
