Do you have an appreciation of diverse arts, culture, shopping and delicious food as well as a heart for helping people meet and rise above their basic needs? ACAM is a 501(c)3 public charity nonprofit and Management Support Organization (MSO) committed to supporting excellence in services and organizational development for Community Assistance Ministries in the Greater Houston region. Our staff, network and consulting partners include experts in homelessness prevention, public benefits access, domestic violence, nutrition, economic development, social work, basic needs and nonprofit training, and basic needs/poverty research — creating a unique mix of capabilities to address today's interrelated development and poverty alleviation challenges. ACAM currently serves ministries in five counties within the Houston region and is located in the galleria area, near one of the largest shopping malls in the country. Houston, TX is home to the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, Space Center Houston, the Houston Museum District and a multitude of international festivals, music and arts events. The Resource Development VISTA will assist ACAM in increasing its organizational capacity to effectively engage and cultivate funder partners to strengthen philanthropic relations. The VISTA will enable ACAM and our partners to build lasting, fruitful relationships by securing grants and researching the tools needed for effective donor recruitment, management and retention.
