Sue Enright joined Lakeview Pantry as Director of Development to lead the capital campaign for the purchase and build-out of a new and permanent home for the Pantry. She directed annual campaigns that met Pantry operating expenses and seeded a reserve fund for future expenses. Her duties included directing organizational marketing and communications strategies to support fundraising. She is a committed, collaborative and enthusiastic team member, whose management of fundraising on behalf of the Pantry contributed to the financial stability of the organization. She helped set the stage for the next phase of the Lakeview Pantry work as Chicago’s largest food pantry.

I have had the pleasure of working with Sue Enright over the last 20 years. We first began our collaboration when she was the general manager at the catering company, J & L, owned by my husband and myself. She was able to put in the infrastructure and systems that took us from being a mom and pop shop to a successful company earning aver 5 million dollars a year. Since then we have been colleagues at The Greater Chicago Food Depository and Kendall University. In addition,when I was COO at Sweet Miss Giving's Bakery her advise, given freely, was invaluable. I have always found her to be passionate about the mission, extremely detailed in her execution of projects, creative at finding solutions for challenging problems and a considerate and loyal colleague. Any organization would greatly benefit having her on their team. Please contact me if you need any other information.
