I have worked for 40 years raising money for organizations as diverse as Amnestia International (México) Oxfam International, Greenpeace, CHIRLA, Doctors Without Borders, PEN, Evergreen State College and CSLA Alumni Funds, Sierra Club, Peace Through Music, and so forth.
I have many tangible, concrete plans to attract more donations to KPFK, e.g. KPFK table set up at wellattended events like Venice Beach on weekends, at CICLOVIA L.A. mass bike riding events, gay pride events, even at concerts by performers likely to appeal to KPFK listeners.
I am a retired elem. school teacher, near-native fluency in español, 34 years teaching in LAUSD and very active in supporting Mexican and Central American immigrants. Able to find common ground with people of different progressive political ideologies. Good natured and believe in the power of laughter to bring people together
