The Asian Pacific Environmental Network (APEN) is looking for a motivated and driven development professional to grow the power of grassroots Asian and Pacific Islander (API) communities to advance environmental, social and economic justice.

APEN was founded in 1993 with the belief that all of us have the right to a clean and healthy environment, in which we can live, work, learn, play and thrive. APEN amplifies the collective voice setting the agenda for environmental, social and economic justice. By building an organized movement, we are bringing fundamental changes to economic and social institutions to make them prioritize public good over profits and honor the right of every person to a decent, safe, affordable quality of life, and the right to participate in decisions affecting our lives. APEN holds this vision of environmental justice for all people.

APEN is expanding our team and has created a new position of Development Manager to build out our fundraising capacity. The right candidate will have a creative spark, great attention to detail and excellent writing skills. They will use their exemplary communication skill to convey compelling stories of immigrant communities, the value of environmental justice, civic participation and APEN’s impact in these areas. The Development Manager will manage all aspects of our grants and individual donor fundraising, raising approximately $1.7 million per year and be supervised by APEN’s Executive Director.
