Q-and-A With DMANF Executive Director Christopher Quinn

FS: What are some challenges you anticipate in your role?
CQ: The economy will probably be our biggest challenge. We have to make sure we’re providing our members with education and research that will always keep them one step ahead, while we’re also protecting them from adverse legislation.

FS: How will you meet them?
CQ: In education, we’ll constantly work with our volunteers to understand what they need in terms of new fundraising techniques, technology and networking opportunities. On the legislative front, we’ll make sure legislators understand the importance of the nonprofit community and keep our membership consistently updated on what is happening on Capitol Hill and in the various state houses.
