Throughout college, I had the opportunity to turn creative ideas into fundraising initiatives that supported organizations that I cared about.

“Fundraising taught me that I genuinely love bringing people together around something we care about. From lemonade stands and bake sales to hot chocolate stations and a Mario Kart tournament, I loved finding creative ways to engage people while raising awareness of the organizations we represented.
I especially enjoyed the planning process, from coordinating logistics and booking tables to coming up with new ideas. But my favorite part was getting everyone involved and having members and executive board members all hands-on deck made each fundraiser feel like a true team effort.
For me, fundraising became more than raising money. It was about building community, creating awareness, and helping support something we all cared about.”
