We’re hiring an investment and fundraising director!

We are a multi-stakeholder coop that creates community controlled assets and empowers our BIPOC communities to cooperatively lead a just transition from an extractive capitalist system into one where communities are ecologically, emotionally, spiritually, culturally, and economically restorative and regenerative. 

We are a team of seven full-time and part-time staffers. If you’re rooted in the East Bay, if you love developing fundraising and investment campaigns, and if you’re committed to anti-racism, anti-oppressive movement building, and collective decision-making, then this job’s for you!
