We are pleased to welcome Nicole Schleif Sinn, CFRE, to PHC as our new Development Manager!
Nicole is an accomplished fundraising professional with over a decade of experience supporting the success of nonprofit organizations. Most recently serving as Chief Development Officer for Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Iowa, she led transformational fundraising efforts that fueled significant growth for the organization.
For PHC, Nicole will be tasked with raising the critical funds needed to expand our reach in the community. As the need for high-quality healthcare and supportive services for all people continues to skyrocket, financial growth and sustainability are essential to fulfilling our mission.
Hailing from Wisconsin originally, Nicole loves being a part of the Des Moines community and working to make it a better place for all who call it home. In her spare time, you can find her out on the trails with her pups, or curled up with a good book.
Building relationships with donors and partners will be central to her work, and we are looking forward to getting her connected with this great community of supporters. Contact her here nschleifsinn@phcinc.net!
