Foundation Grants Anchor Disaster Relief Programs Again for All Hands and Hearts.
Foundation Relations Director in Mattapoisett:
Pros: Technical and persuasive writing opportunities. Strategically planning approaches for solicitations.
Cons: Dealing with the volume of accounts via database, struggling to pull useful data reports for solicitation, reporting, follow-up - i.e. managing stewardship, grant compliance and reporting while at same time trying to prospect and solicit new funding opportunities.

Work hard, stay honest, and always take on new challenges.
Foundation Relations Director:
Spend a lot of time researching who is on the Board of Foundations where you think there might be a good fit. Also, always give every proposal a re-read after other people have reviewed it. Double check everything, from directions to layout. Also, research where your Foundations of interest are actually funding. Ask for advice.

Wish I knew more about personal finance when I started, especially for retirement and investing. When I came to this realization at about age 29, I switched careers. Advice: keep learning new skills sets; be willing to switch careers; make sure your job is intellectually stimulating.
