Job Description

Background on The Lucky Foundation

The Lucky Foundation, a 501(c)(3) Non-Profit Public Benefit Corporation who was founded to honor the fallen, empower communities, and preserve the legacy of service, is seeking volunteer leaders to join its dynamic Advisory Board Committee.

Honoring our fallen heroes, both those who have served and those who protect our local communities, is a vital act of remembrance and gratitude. It is our duty to recognize their sacrifices, not only at a national level but also within our local communities and at a personal level. Community involvement has a crucial role in honoring our heroes. It allows us to collectively express our appreciation and uphold the values our heroes embodied. Moreover, it enables families to pass down the legacy of their loved ones, instilling in younger generations the importance of patriotism, integrity, and selflessness.
Numerous ways exist to honor our heroes, their families, and their sacrifices. Through volunteering, donating, or simply expressing our gratitude, we can individually contribute to preserving their memory and upholding the ideals they fought for. These acts of remembrance serve as a reminder of the unwavering commitment and bravery of those who have given so much to safeguard our freedoms and protect our communities. Unite with us in honoring our fallen heroes.

The Stewardship Manager will be part of the Committee of the Advisory Board, a position which comes with more responsibilities than joining as a member. The Stewardship Manager position will be responsible for providing direction, guidance, and leadership.
