"Always give clients more than promised - you will be a hit"
Her academic background started in Education, but she then upskilled herself in terms of business management by completing a Masters degree through the Lesley University School of Management. Post her studies, her talent in terms of management was spotted early and she moved quickly into leadership positions at the Xavier University College of Pharmacy and the Northeastern School of Law respectively. In these positions, she helped specifically with development and public relations, helping these teams improve their standing in their respective local environments.
However, it wasn’t until she moved into the non-profit world proper that she really began to hit her stride. She spent some time as the Chief Fundraising Officer for the Franciscan Children’s Hospital & Rehabilitation Center, the VP of Development at The Better Homes Fund, before taking on the ambitious Senior Gifts Officer role at the Harvard Divinity School. It was here where she sharpened her skills and really came into her own with her ability to fundraise for a wide variety of use cases.
Today, she serves as a Fundraising and Grant Writing consultant for Hampton Bates public relations, helping non-profit and academic institutions access the funding they so desperately need. When it comes to putting together compelling business cases and getting fundraising deals over the line, you won’t find many better than Sylvia. Her ability to build networks, maneuver through budgets, and persuade investors to take the leap put her in a league of her own.
