ABOUT FCCP
The Funders' Committee for Civic Participation (FCCP) is looking for a nimble, detail-oriented and selfmotivated coordinator willing to support FCCP on its operations and administration. FCCP is an innovative and thought-provoking network that shares an underlying conviction that all people deserve a voice in our democratic process. The organization serves leaders in the philanthropic community working to further this vision with heightened attention to issues of equity and historically disenfranchised and underrepresented communities. Its members support non-partisan efforts to engage voters, eliminate structural barriers to voting, advance reforms to improve government and electoral systems, and inspire public involvement in civic life. This decade, FCCP has evolved into a modern affinity group to support and drive its members to most effectively support the non-profit community to create a society where marginalized communities have the power to make a difference on issues that impact their lives, a culture of participation that inspires their engagement, and an open + equitable democracy which offers meaningful opportunities to exercise their voice.
Our rapidly growing membership includes nearly 100 grantmaking institutions representing over $700 million in annual grantmaking to the field.
