Joining the PRMH team five years ago was a wonderful career decision. My time and expertise is dedicated to increasing revenue by soliciting and securing capital campaign gifts, planned gifts and operating income from individuals, households and foundations. It's a privilege to advance the brand of the first Ronald McDonald House in the world through thoughtful communication with donors, prospects and volunteers. Provide management oversight for systems and services related to gift processing, stewardship, and prospect research, as well as recommend strategies for enhanced engagement with our loyal donor base.
