Experience

Interim Director of Development Development Consultant
Brooklyn Kindergarten Society
Dec 2020 — Present · Brooklyn, NY, US
I stepped into this interim role after working with BKS on several projects in the fall of 2019. BKS contracted with me to manage their fundraising and communications efforts through a period of leadership transition at the organization. My contract currently takes me through the end of 2023. I manage the website, social media, and email communications, as well as grant writing, event fundraising, and major gifts. I work closely with Board leadership and new Executive Director to achieve fundraising and communications goals. I work closely with finance to develop the annual budget projections for private revenue. It is my goal to get BKS’ fundraising and communications systems and activities routinized in order to be more responsive to donors and better meet organizational needs.

For more than 129 years, the mission of BKS has been to provide children from families who are low-income with access to a high quality education in a nurturing environment – an environment that cultivates their curiosity and extends the skills they need to succeed well beyond school. As a matter of compassion, justice, and solid public policy, BKS believes that every child deserves the opportunity to fulfill their potential. We also believe in a work and learning environment based upon mutual trust and collaboration. That spirit of trust extends from the Executive Director and Board of Directors through to the staff, teachers, children, and families of BKS, creating a sense of community and shared responsibility between all stakeholders. Children at BKS receive full-day educational classes with age-appropriate, evidence-based curricula and enrichment programs such as Spanish language music class, dance, the visual arts, and soccer. Beyond educational excellence, BKS also provides family services and support throughout the year. Our Early Learn centers are open 12 months a year, 10 hours a day. BKS early childhood learning centers are located in public housing in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Crown Heights, Brownsville, and Historic Weeksville Gardens. Each year our centers serve nearly 400 children and their families. New York City relies heavily on organizations like BKS to make wider access to early childhood education available through Pre-K For All and 3-K For All.
