Meet Shana Risinger - Education Coordinator & Receptionist here at the Center for Nonprofit Management. If you’ve ever called the main line, attended a class or visited the Center’s offices, chances are Shana was the first person you talked to.

Shana would describe her entrance in to nonprofit as an accident. Her previous job required her to stand on her feet all day but when she broke her ankle, it became necessary for her line of work to change. “I actually fell into this job by accident and I haven’t looked back since.”

An important aspect of working in nonprofit is enjoying your work, but also enjoying the people you work with. Shana believes the best part about her job is the people she works with. She also enjoys meeting the Center’s various clients. “When people come through the door they are so sweet and eager to tell you about their nonprofit's mission and the great work they're doing in the community.”
