I'm passionate about quality non-profit management. The non-profit community makes/can make a tremendous difference in a community. The better managed any particular organization is, the more the entire non-profit community is valued.

Title : Development Director - raise money
Our organization is 100% charitably funded, i.e. we don't receive state or federal funding, 3rd party reimbursements, or grants. Our primary funding stream is the donation of individuals. My contact with our donors and the difference they're making in people's lives is very humbling.
