About Lucy Jodlowska

Twenty years of experience working with social purpose organizations, ranging from large and established institutions to start-ups, with thematic areas spanning consumer protection services, economic and small business growth, agriculture, and climate change, both in the United States and abroad. The primary drivers of initiatives I have either led or supported over the last two decades can be boiled down to the following: 1) Advancing social missions while ensuring organizational sustainability and capacity to grow, via nonprofit, for-profit and hybrid models 2) Stimulating economic development and investment in rural or otherwise marginalized contexts 3) Deploying capital towards initiatives that have a difficult time accessing credit, funding, or other resources, via blended or otherwise innovative financing 4) Championing environmental and social justice, advancing regenerative agriculture, and working on behalf of local and regional food system development in the United States Fluent in English, Spanish, and Polish, and being a freelance photographer of many years, I\'m passionate about cross-sectoral, cross-border collaborations, developing innovative business models and strategic partnerships, & communicating compelling stories of impact.
