I worked for a high energy department that supported the people of Nashville with financial assistance, food boxes, job training, food kitchen, and Christmas wishes. This job was anything but sedentary! My day could start out near Opryland, proceed to South Nashville, head to the warehouse on the East bank and finish up the day in North Nashville. I rarely had the same day twice! While in the Mission Advancement office, I arranged donor mailings, gift receipts, attendance lists and invitations for all fundraising events. Assisted with marketing, logistics, and on-site management for both onsite and offsite fundraisers and events.
