To strengthen Global Heritage Fund’s role as a global thought leader in development, I focused on enhancing and safeguarding its reputation and supporting programs and operations to achieve organizational goals.Primarily, I communicated nonprofit relations with key stakeholders, including government agencies, foundations, major donors, and private sector partners. I produced and managed all marketing and communications channels by developing content focused on cultural heritage storytelling, including but not limited to website, emails, blogs, social media, press releases, reports and publications. Throughout the year I coordinated events for the Board of Trustees through budget management, creating communications materials, managing calendars across time zones, and presenting on area of expertise as requested.Creating reports and pitch decks to maintain and cultivate relationships with donors was a large part of my role, and I did so while collaborating with the Executive Director and Director of Operations to identify and research new opportunities for stewardship. I often liaised with the press about media opportunities (TV and print) and prepped the Executive Director with talking points and background research prior to media interviews. Show less
