About Serjio Brereda
I am a dedicated nonprofit professional based in Greater Houston with over seven years of experience working across local and national organizations in fundraising, donor relations, and data management. Currently, I serve as the Fund Development Manager at Envisioning Access, where I lead strategic fundraising efforts to advance tech accessibility for people with disabilities. My work includes cultivating donor relationships, managing campaigns and grants, and driving long-term funding growth to support inclusive innovation.I hold a B.S. in Political Science from the University of Houston with a concentration in Nonprofit Management, and earned my Certified Nonprofit Professional (CNP) credentials through the Nonprofit Leadership Alliance. I am also pursuing a Master’s in Philanthropic Studies at the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy at IUPUI to deepen my impact in the sector.Beyond my professional role, I served on the Board of Directors for the AFP Greater Houston Chapter, as well as Treasurer for Valiant Life Foundation and board member for Navidad En El Barrio.In my free time, I enjoy meaningful moments with my family and getting lost in a good book—especially anything by Mitch Albom. “Tuesdays with Morrie” is a favorite I revisit every year.
