Part-Time Development Associate

Job description

The FD/MAS Alliance is a community-based 501c3 nonprofit that serves people affected by FD/MAS through research, education, and advocacy programs.

Fibrous Dysplasia (FD) and McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) are nonhereditary, debilitating diseases caused by an uncommon and completely random mutation of the same gene. FD is when bone is replaced by fibrous tissue, resulting in fractures, deformity, and pain. MAS is classically defined as the combination of FD, excess hormone levels, and cafe-au-lait birthmarks, but other tissues may also be abnormal. Patients’ experiences depend on when the mutation occurred during their development and how many different cell types in their bodies are affected. For this reason, diagnosis and treatment can be difficult.

We seek a passionate and social media-savvy individual to join our team as a Part-Time Development Associate. This entry-level role will work closely with our team to help grow our organization and expand our impact. This fully virtual position requires 12 - 15 hours per week and offers a competitive salary range of $20 -$22 per hour. The ideal candidate should have a strong sense of empathy and compassion, especially when working with individuals affected by disabilities and chronic pain. Knowledge of rare patient advocacy groups is a plus.
