Bio
Sarah Groninger
It’s my absolute pleasure to recommend Erna. As Erna's manager and direct supervisor during her fellowship at GlobalGiving, I collaborated closely with Erna on a number of projects and thoroughly enjoyed working with her. Erna was a valuable asset to our team. In her role as the Business Partnerships Fellow, Erna demonstrated an ability to adapt and be flexible, nimbly responding to the variable nature of our work. She juggled competing demands, worked quickly to solve problems and prioritize what was most important without sacrificing the quality of her work. Erna's keen interest in business development and relationship cultivation was key to our team's successful execution of a large-scale research project and outreach strategy as she led the effort to identify and qualify prospective points of contact at mission-aligned companies. Erna additionally impressed me by taking the lead on a number of small corporate partnerships, building key relationships and managing program execution. Specifically, Erna managed an employee giving program for a large technology company and was responsible for day to day operations including account oversight, creation and maintenance of custom giving sites, providing excellent customer service and building relationships with nearly a dozen points of contact at the company resulting in $300K+ in charitable gift card orders and employee donations to nonprofit organizations around the globe. Beyond her technical skill set, Erna is honest, dependable, and an absolute joy to work with. She's curious and passionate about social impact and collective change. In all of her interactions, Erna exhibits grace and empathy for the communities we serve. With Erna's good humor, global perspective, and many talents, I have every confidence she will be successful in any role.

Erna is an extremely thoughtful and reliable employee. Her diligence and attention to detail while managing complex research and data sets is exceptional. She always maintained a positive attitude, met aggressive deadlines, and provided invaluable support for a variety of projects. I feel so fortunate to have worked with Erna. I know she will bring the same work ethic and passion for social impact to her next work environment -- her teammates will be lucky to have her!
