We're #hiring a new Peer-to-Peer Manager in St Paul, Minnesota. Apply today or share this post with your network.

We’re #Hiring! 📣🎉 We are super excited to be adding two positions to our team! Both roles will be part time with flexible and hybrid work hours. 💙Director of Individual Giving - We are seeking an experienced individual donor guru to lead the development and implementation of our individual donor program (10-20 hours/week; $30/hour). 💙Peer-to-Peer Manager - We are seeking a fundraising coach for individuals raising money for BLG in several running and endurance events (10-15 hours/week; $20/hour). Our ideal candidates are local to the Twin Cities, but we are open to the right fit for our growing team. We are super excited for how these positions will directly impact our mission to support rare cancer research and empower all cancer survivors through physical activity. Think you’re a good fit for either of these roles? Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/eS_t62ew

5 years. 5 years is both forever and no time at all. Here at Brave Like Gabe we have the honor and joy of talking about Gabe every single day. We get to hear from people she’s inspired and do our very best to live up to the legacy she created. Yet, Gabe should be here with us, enjoying summer in Minnesota and planning the 7th annual Brave Like Gabe 5K. And in a sense, she still is. The power of her voice lives on in so many of us and her hope for more research is realized daily here at Brave Like Gabe. These past five years have been eventful, notably highlighted by over $2 Million in rare cancer research funding by Brave Like Gabe. What an incredible impact she continues to have, thanks in part to all of you. “I would love to live in a world where rare cancer patients have more treatment options and ultimately, cures. And if I can’t live in that world, I want to help it become a possibility for future patients.” Gabe, you are deeply missed every single day.
