Last Look: An Interview With Kristin Valentine, Director of Development, Bread for the City

FS: Any major difficulties or setbacks you've faced along the way? Things you would do differently with your fundraising?

KV: I've had some pretty bad ideas that I thought were good ones at the time. Thankfully, I have a board and executive director who are OK with me trying new things and forgive me when I fail. I still need to be more efficient with my time and resources. I think that will be an ongoing challenge. It's not always easy to tell what person or group will yield the greatest return.
