A graduate of Beloit College, Glenda Reed has worked on both sides of the fundraising continuum as a grant writer and a grant maker.

As a grant maker, she has reviewed applications as well as interim and final reports for the Center for Architecture Foundation in New York—a 3.5 million dollar foundation.
