Why Helia LOVES Shannon
We’re hard-pressed to find a doer who works harder than Shannon to create a better world. Shannon’s work centers on organizations led by people with lived experience, the folks that typically don’t have the access and relationships required to raise significant funds. Shannon uses her expertise to help these leaders circumvent the broken system and find non-philanthropic sustainable funding sources to continue their good work. Shannon is a textbook example of a doer doing good.
