Being kind to flight attendants isn’t just the right thing to do… sometimes it gets you a VIP upgrade to your own row on a cross-country flight! ’s remote office set-up remains undefeated.

I love the Community Foundation of Anne Arundel County team and can't wait for this important project to begin in earnest. Look for the helpers!

Your voice matters! That's why CFAAC has partnered with Dr. Lili Leonard of Black Dog Philanthropic to facilitate our strategic planning process. Watch your inbox and our social pages next week for a community stakeholder survey.

It's your community. We're your foundation.

It has been an absolute joy working with The Talent Machine Company to help hire their first-ever Executive Director… and what an AMAZING leader we found! So excited to see what’s next for this incredible organization with Kelly at the helm.

The Talent Machine Company, Central Maryland's children's theater company, named Kelly Balmaceda as its first Executive Director, bringing nearly two decades of nonprofit arts management experience to the role.

Every single time I see Comptroller of Maryland Brooke Lierman, I like to remind her that my taxes are filed and my small business is compliant. (If you know me personally, you’re probably shaking your head, because this unhinged candor comes as absolutely no surprise.)

In all seriousness, did you know the Comptroller’s office does so much more than taxes? I’m absolutely delighted to be serving as a panel moderator at the upcoming Bridging Communities Conference on June 30! This conference is designed to help nonprofit leaders better understand how to work with state government, access available resources, and build stronger partnerships in service of Maryland communities.
