Contract Marketing Coordinator
shirley@aincolorado.org
After my 26-year corporate career came to an unexpected end in 2008, I decided to make the next chapter of my life about doing something I could be passionate about. As the Program Coordinator for a local nonprofit, I worked for nine years helping older adults who were blind or visually impaired achieve more independence and a greater quality of life. When that nonprofit closed due to a lack of funding, it was a natural transition for me to join the team at AINC. I had been referring my clients to this important resource for many years. I am so thankful to be working with such a wonderful and valuable organization.
