Founder and Executive Director
Apr 2013 — Present · Beacon Falls, CT, US
I founded the organization following my mother’s death from ALS and spent sixteen months as her primary caregiver. I am responsible for a $175k annual fundraising goal and distributing at least $100k annually to families across New England. Successes include launching and leading the agency\'s Flex Grant Program, expanding the organization\'s footprint to serve the entirety of New England, developing strong ties with local, regional, and national partners, and developing, building, and executing fundraising strategies that have led to well over $1M in total revenue.
