Job Description

Who We Are:

At Marin Community Foundation (MCF), we are committed to fostering a culture of Equity, Innovation, Impact, Transparency, Collaboration, and Joy. We believe that these values are integral to our success as an organization and guide everything we do, from our strategic initiatives to our daily interactions with colleagues and invested parties. As a team, we strive to create positive change in the world while maintaining an inclusive and supportive work environment where everyone can thrive.

Vision: A world where every choice begins with we; where every action sustains all; where every person acts now.

We envision communities built on common cause and empathy – where people of all backgrounds work together to spark and sustain positive change. There is power in “we”.

What We Do:

The challenges and opportunities of our time require us to set a bold new direction. Our North Star is simple: more impact for our communities in Marin and beyond by recognizing the power of community.

Our Initiatives

Climate justice: Vulnerable communities face far greater risks of poorer health and economic outcomes from climate change. They need support to adapt to or recover from climate disruptions such as flooding, sea level rise, extreme heat, wildfire, and smoke.

Affordable housing & homelessness: Every person deserves to live in a safe and secure home. However, the high cost of housing and limited supply of affordable homes in Marin forces many people into unjust housing situations or homelessness.

Community power: Marin’s hardworking nonprofits deserve the opportunity to focus on the work at hand. With multi-year, general operating support grants, we recognize the effectiveness of these organizations and shift some of the power from the foundation to the community.

Mission: Mobilizing the power of community and the resources of philanthropy to advance equity for people, places, and the planet.

This recognizes the immense power that every community member can bring to achieving the vision by commanding us to mobilize people and resources. This takes smart strategies, but more importantly, it takes great relationships forged by trust and shared values. It also focuses MCF squarely on our goal of advancing equity through community. We want to ensure that everyone has equitable access to opportunities and experiences equitable outcomes regardless of race, gender, income, or other factors.
