Given nearly a quarter-century of clinic development and change, HAM’s USA based management and fund raising duties have also grown exponentially, even as our “staff” has remained primarily volunteer. Thus we are very excited to announce a milestone in our planning for a more sustainable future: we have hired an Executive Director to run U.S. operations and funding development. Friends and supporters of HAM and the Haitian populations, I am extremely pleased to introduce HAM’s new Executive Director, Connie Skingel!
Connie has an extensive nonprofit background and a personal passion for our mission. She will work from her home office in Cleveland, Ohio, which will allow Paul Hammond and me to transition from day to day business management into a governance role. Connie asked me to share with all of you that she is “truly grateful for the opportunity to work alongside the people of Haiti and is amazed by the generous spirit of the HAM community.” I hope you will take a moment to reach out to Connie to welcome her. She can be reached at connie@healingartmissions.org.
