Executive Profile Presented By

Together, we’re building community.

Sea to Sky Community Services Society (SSCS) helps to create healthy, connected, and diverse
communities where everyone has the opportunity to grow, develop and lead meaningful lives - at
every age and stage of life.

Established in 1978, SSCS is the largest community services organization in the Sea to Sky
Corridor: Squamish, Whistler, and Pemberton. SSCS continues to grow and innovate to enhance
the lives of thousands of people every year — through 40 vital programs no one else offers. From
prenatal programs to child care, youth and adult services to assistance for seniors, SSCS helps
clients develop crucial life skills, build confidence and self-worth, and enhance their lives.

The Director of Development & External Relations (Director) will support SSCS achieve its vision
and mission with accountability for establishing a fully integrated fund development program
(annual, major, gift planning as well as grants and sponsorships) and administration pertaining to
development work (database, proposals, correspondence, fund management) as well as leading all
communications, marketing, and public relations work on behalf of the organization. This role is
responsible for a select portfolio of high-net-worth donors and prospects.

SSCS is in the midst of a period of intense campaign work designed to help fund the Harrow Road
project. SSCS’s campaign will build and fund a Community Services Hub and the development of
affordable housing in Pemberton, one of Canada's fastest-growing communities. This Harrow Road
project will meet Pemberton’s critical need for expanded health and social service support and the
Director will play a crucial role in supporting this campaign.

This is a great opportunity for an enthusiastic fundraiser to:

Play an essential role in supporting the Sea to Sky Corridor’s most important social services;
Support and enable fundraising for the Harrow Road capital campaign;
Carry a portfolio of high-capacity, high-inclination prospects with personal accountability for
securing gifts of $50,000+;
Be a part of a high-performing and passionate team.

SSCS is also hiring additional members of their fundraising team. Please reach out if you have an interest
beyond the Director role.

At Sea to Sky Community Services Society, we live and work on the unceded ancestral lands of
the Skwxwú7mesh Nation People and the Southern Stl’atl’imx Nations of Lí̓ lwat, Samahquam,
Skatin, Xa’xtsa, and N’Quatqua.

Some travel will be required for in-person meetings, workshops, events, and staff gatherings at our
facilities throughout the sea to sky corridor.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion:
At SSCS, we are committed to supporting Truth and Reconciliation recommendations through
intentional and meaningful partnerships and program delivery.

We recognize the systemic barriers, biases, and unequal access to services that continue to limit
the rights and opportunities of individuals and communities. SSCSS is committed to ongoing
learning and unlearning, offering opportunities for education, professional and personal
development, and accountability.

Our strategic plan is guided by four aspirations that shape how we serve the Sea to Sky region.
From hiring practices to community engagement, we strive to be inclusive of every individual.
These are called “aspirations” to acknowledge that while we are not free of prejudice and bias, we
are working with intention every day toward a more inclusive and equitable environment.

About Sea to Sky Community Services

With compassion, respect, and care, SSCS provides high-quality programs throughout our region
to enhance the lives of residents at every age and stage of life. Our staff work with the deep
conviction that many of the organization’s programs and services can improve the health and
wellness of individuals and families going forward.

Our Vision: A thriving community where everyone belongs.

Our Mission: To enhance the quality of community life and well-being by providing compassionate
support services and critical programming to individuals and families at every age and stage of life.

Our Values:
Respect: We believe in a shared responsibility to treat others with openness, dignity and
respect.
Inclusive: We foster a community of equal opportunity that is free from discrimination and
other impediments to full and effective participation for all.
Compassion: We provide caring, non-judgmental support.
Collaboration: We work creatively with our partners and community to enhance people’s lives.
Reconciliation: We build authentic relationships based on mutual respect, shared values and a
willingness to learn.

History:
Sea to Sky Community Services Society began as a registered society in 1978. The society was
born out of a need in the community to provide programming at a grassroots, local level.

Our work began with a directory of services for children, youth, families and adults, followed by a
program for children who were at risk of being removed from their homes or were already
involved in the social welfare system. We then secured a contract to support children with
additional needs.

Since then, we have grown tremendously, and this year, we celebrate 40 years of servicing the Sea
to Sky Corridor:

In our first decade, we expanded to offer intervention programs to strengthen and improve
behaviour in the home, parenting programs, daycare and employment/training programs.
In the 1990s, we opened offices in Pemberton and Whistler. We continued to grow, adding
programs and services in community living (helping people with developmental disabilities),
adult mental health and alcohol and drug intervention and prevention.
In the 2000s, we opened childcare centres in Pemberton and Squamish and a youth centre in
Squamish and began managing subsidized and supported housing complexes.
