About Claire Schulz

My mission is to build trusted partnerships that turn shared values into measurable impact. As the Colorado Relationship & Community Director at Greenhouse, I take great care in growing our community of corporate, foundation, and individual relationships. I am responsible for securing more than $2M annually in support, while deepening long-term engagement across donors, mentors, and leaders statewide.My work is grounded in strategic alignment: understanding what partners care about, designing tailored opportunities that meet those priorities, and delivering outcomes that are sustainable, data-informed, and meaningful. With a background spanning talent acquisition, early-career programs, and client strategy, I thrive in navigating complex stakeholder environments and connecting people across sectors, generations, and perspectives.Outside of work, you’ll likely find me leaning into my love for variety and adventure. Whether I’m heading to the mountains to unplug, sinking my toes into the sand at the beach, or immersing myself in live music, I’m at my happiest when I’m exploring. I’m a lifelong learner with a passion for traveling to new places and picking up new skills along the way.
