ABOUT PABLOVE

The Pablove Foundation is dedicated to improving the lives of children living with cancer through the arts and advancing underfunded, cutting-edge pediatric cancer research.

Through our Pablove Shutterbugs program, we teach healing arts photography classes nationwide (both virtually and in person), giving kids a creative outlet and a voice. Our research program funds innovative pediatric cancer studies, helping drive discoveries that can save lives.

We are honored to serve these children and their families while engaging our supporters by sharing their stories of courage, creativity, and hope. We are a small but deeply passionate team that cares tremendously about our mission, our families, and each other. We move quickly, wear many hats, and pitch in wherever needed to help the organization thrive.

ROLE SUMMARY

The Program & Operations Coordinator is a highly collaborative, behind-the-scenes role that helps keep Pablove organized, efficient, and moving forward.

This position is ideal for someone who enjoys variety, stays organized, communicates well with people, and is excited to support many aspects of a growing nonprofit organization.

Because we are a small team, this role requires someone who is flexible, resourceful, and happy to jump in wherever needed!

This role is heavily administrative and operational at its core, but also offers meaningful opportunities to engage directly with families, volunteers, donors, and community partners. We are looking for someone who enjoys both keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes and serving as a warm, professional representative of the organization. The ideal candidate is proactive, detail-oriented, adaptable, tech-comfortable, and energized by mission-driven work.
