Since 1993, the DeKalb County Community Foundation has seen an increase in Fund impact and assets, resulting in expanded services. We are excited to begin another period of growth as we announce an upcoming staffing change and an open position.

In October 2023, Foundation Grants & Community Initiatives Manager Marc Hooks took an opportunity with the Rockford School District. His vacated grants management role created an opportunity for current Foundation Administrative Manager Sara Nickels to fill. Sara will begin shifting her responsibilities to grants and scholarships management over the coming weeks. 

The recent staffing change creates an immediate full-time career opportunity for a new Administrative Manager.

Interested applicants are encouraged to review the job posting and job description, including salary range and benefits. Submissions MUST include a formal cover letter and resume sent to careers@dekalbccf.org. 

Applications accepted through 5:00 p.m., Thursday, November 30, 2023. No phone inquiries, please.
