Work with our director of development to organize fundraising events, conduct outreach, recruit event volunteers, write grants, and assist with donor database development and design outreach materials. This focus on development and fundraising would be the most robust ASSETS has ever had, and would exponentially build our capacity to sustain our anti-poverty work. As ASSETS continues to grow over the next several years, this will be an ongoing area of need for the organization. Therefore, the work of the first VISTA member will be essential in creating processes, systems, and connections, which will then be further developed in subsequent years.​
