​​​​

About us

F2F Direct Consulting has been representing charitable causes for over twenty years. Our community outreach is an extension of the charity's own philosophy as the new donor relationships we acquire are based on authenticity and transparency.

​​

The Cause

When a child receives a life-threatening diagnosis, families face significant challenges, including intricate medical requirements and emotional strain. Canuck Place Children's Hospice provides specialized pediatric palliative care to address these unique needs, offering services such as pain management, medical respite, and end-of-life care. Their program aims to improve the quality of life for children and families, helping them find moments of connection during difficult times.

​

About the Fundraising Ambassador Position

Fundraising Ambassadors develop personal relationships between British Columbians and the Canuck Place Children's Hospice. They share how the charity provides essential, specialized pediatric palliative care at no cost to over 920 medically complex children and their families across British Columbia and the Yukon. They also explain how the charity helps empower families to find strength and create lasting memories.

​

Year-round, engage British Columbians as you stand or sit next to a display inside of a variety of local grocery stores. Conduct awareness in an inspirational manner that increases Canuck Place Children's Hospice's monthly donor base.​​​​​​​​

Shift Times

Our Fundraising Ambassadors typically work either three, four or five six-hour shifts and so, every week, they work between 18 and 30 hours.

​

Shifts start as early as 9:00 am and end as late as 9:00 pm.

​

You need a vehicle to bring a small display and stool with you to work every day.

​​​

Training and Skill Development

While personability and personal integrity are necessary virtues in Donor Appreciation and Fundraising Ambassadors, previous experience as a fundraiser is not necessary since F2F Direct Consulting provides extensive training. New Fundraising Ambassadors begin with at home training modules. They shadow an experienced team member for at least two days before working alone.

​

Compensation

The starting wage of a Fundraising Ambassador is $21 per hour. There is no commission pay, but there is a periodic bonus that can add between $0.50 and $2.00 to every hour you work engaging the public.

​

Most Fundraising Ambassadors accumulate between three and four paid sick days every year and receive full individual health benefits after six months.

What does a day in the life of one of our fundraisers look like?

Here's a testimonial from one of our team members about why she loves her job:

  • I get to practice the art of communication -connecting with people and inspire them, what an incredible skill to build on and maybe the number one useful skill in any project, school or professional area.

  • I get to be outside-meaning I get to breathe fresh air rather than stale inside/office air. I experience outside sounds, look up at the sky, rest my eyes on trees, plants, gardens, quaint houses, tall buildings, people, in an environment that changes continuously and so offers so much variety.

  • Team briefing-I absolutely love discussing and sharing creative ideas around work experiences, tools, improvement etc with a team dedicated to the health and support and development of the whole and you've got another of my dreams come true.

  • Flexibility- I have always been met with understanding and a willingness to be flexible regarding my schedule, within reason of course.

  • The hours- I like waking up whenever I want to -I still get up quite early but just the feeling that I don't HAVE to, lessens stress in my day. I have enough time as well as energy to work on personal projects before my shift starts – and it ends early enough to still have some chill out time in the evening. And, it's (generally) Monday to Friday.

  • Fulfilling- What I do, what I talk to people about, has a direct impact. It supports the kind of world I'd like to be a part of building and the kind of transformation I'd like to see happening in our competitive, lonely, consumer-driven society. A society where we can all embrace being true citizens and stewards of this planet and of each other.

  • Management- Supportive, encouraging, available, progressive-thinking and operating.
