About GiveCampus

Raise more dollars and engage more constituents with GiveCampus, the only comprehensive fundraising technology platform built exclusively for educational institutions. Backed by Y Combinator.

About the role

Everything GiveCampus is building runs on school data, and today, getting that data connected is the top reason a school's launch stalls. GC Intelligence, our AI that predicts which donors are likely to give and drafts outreach to them, needs a school's full donor history to work.
