Chanda Slenk

Director of Communications Philanthropy and Engagement @Hope College

Holland, MI, US

I am an integral member of a dynamic team of professionals responsible for engaging alumni, families and friends in a lifelong relationship with the college, providing and overseeing a clear process for the Philanthropy and Engagement division to prioritize and coordinate communication projects. I work closely with divisional leaders and their teams to develop communication materials that support fundraising and engagement goals, overseeing the production of all related print and digital collateral, providing leadership to a communications team responsible for coordinating and completing communication projects for Alumni and Family Engagement, Annual Philanthropy, Planned Giving, Donor Relations, Stewardship and future fundraising campaigns. My main goals are to maintain close relationships with colleagues across the Philanthropy and Engagement division and other campus partners, ensuring consistency of materials and fostering collaboration to engage alumni, families, donors and friends of the college.
