L.A. Bailey

I have more than 10 years of entrepreneurial, non-profit management and fundraising experience and I work best in a fast-paced, high-achieving environment. I have directed a variety of tasks ranging from major donor initiatives and long-range strategic planning to branding and cause-related marketing campaigns.

During the last three years, I have secured grants/donations from the following sectors:

Foundation Grants $4.2 million
Corporate Grants: $3.5 million
Government Grants: $2.5 million
Individual Grants: $785,000

Overall, I have a grant writing success rate of 85 percent.
In addition to my fundraising and management experience, I also have extensive knowledge and training in:

-- Marketing and Public Relations (including Directing Social

Media Campaigns)

-- Public Affairs

-- Business Development

-- Public Education (Training and Workshops)

-- Community Relations and Outreach

-- Consultant Management

-- External Relations

-- Government Relations

I have also worked with companies, non-profits, and government groups to develop fundraising and marketing goals, objectives, and strategies. My skills and experience are diverse, transferable, and ready to be put to use on day 1.
