Veterans Community Project (VCP) Overview

Founded in 2016 in Kansas City, MO, VCP is dedicated to supporting every man and woman who took the oath to defend our nation. The greatest barrier to ending Veteran homelessness is the revolving door of unstable housing and the frustrating maze Veterans must navigate in order to get basic support. We believe that to be an effective program, the first step is to connect Veterans and the community. VCP created an innovative homeless housing program and outreach assistance that provides inclusive services to aid Veterans in re-claiming control over their lives.

The Team

We, the team members and co-founders of VCP, are connectors, feelers, and doers on a mission to help our kin, our kind. We move with swift, bold action, driven by our mission. We believe in collaboration, community, compassion, and above all, serving Veterans with dignity and respect.

The Role

Do you geek out over databases and live in the details? Do you enjoy creating organized processes that enable teams in the field? Do you enjoy being a key connector who supports and empowers multiple teams to do their best work? Do you have 4-5 years of nonprofit development experience you are looking to apply? If you said yes to these things, this role might be perfect for you.

You will also administer the matching gifts program, support grant award processing, pull Marketing reports and assess performance to ensure our development and marketing efforts align with VCP's financial goals and compliance standards. You will bring a passion for VCP's mission and a strong focus on optimizing operational efficiency for the teams.
