FUNDRAISING STARS (NONPROFIT)

Marcy Bursac,
director of resource development
Connections to Success

Marcy Bursac's work encompasses some of the most important building blocks to successful fundraising. One of the first clues that we were looking at star material was the fact that within a few months of joining the staff at Connections to Success, Bursac led the organization's first-ever staff giving campaign, and as a result, the organization can now share with its funders that it has 100 percent staff giving — a real confidence builder when it comes to deciding which organizations to support.
