And because she does so much to keep the entire Community Foundation team happy, we try our best to make sure we see it as much as possible. As Finance/Human Resources Coordinator, she processes payroll, makes sure we get our benefits, pays the bills, serves as a member of our Employee Engagement Team and much much more.
