Blair Deacon shared tips on Fundraising with our VISTA Cohort on Wednesday. Her experience working as the Director of Resource Development has caused her to understand the importance of sharing data of impact and clients experiences from your organization with donors.

We are so grateful for the wisdom shared and the ideas that came alive during this meeting. Thank you again, Blair!

For our March VISTA Meeting, Cohort members brought their resumes for peer-review. In Speed Dating fashion, each VISTA had their resume critiqued by 5 others during 6 minute rotations.

During each rotation, our VISTAs considered if the resume in front of them was professional, up to date, relevant, and had consistent formatting. This experience allowed each of our VISTAs to walk away with revisions to their resume, which will enhance their future professional endeavors!
