Fundraising and Non-Profit Professional
Greater Seattle Area
I am a skilled fund development professional. I have worked within corporate giving, granting, major gifts, and annual fund and grassroots fundraising. My experience has been within education, health care and social services in both the USA and Canada.
I am fervent about the community and social change, passionate about non-profits securing funding for their mission. I believe social media (blogging, Twitter, Linkedin, Facebook) can open doors and expand fundraising for nonprofits of any size. Feel free to check out my blog where I write about my own adventure in development and with social media: www.ASmallChange.net.
I would love to connect if you are:
-a non-profit that wants to try some new ideas around social media or online fundraising
-a non-profit with questions about fund development
-a business looking for a non-profit to partner with or need help creating a giving plan
-an individual passionate about making a difference and/or committed to philanthropy
