19 Jul Jennifer Schnare joins ForAfrika as new Director of Development, north America

We are very happy to announce that Jennifer Schnare has been appointed as the new Director of Development, North America, at ForAfrika, a NGO that fights for a better future for Africa’s children and was looking to develop new funding opportunities with individuals, foundations and corporations in Canada.

Former Executive Director at McDermott House Canada Foundation, Jennifer is “most looking forward to working with the incredible team at ForAfrika. Everyone I met throughout the process was incredibly passionate and dedicated to the mission. There is also a wealth of development experience that I am eager to learn from.”

“The experience with Daryl Upsall International – and particularly Ruth Gardner – was exceptional. Ruth was so organized, professional and transparent with the process. She provided timely updates and I always understood where I stood in the recruitment process,” she added.

Sarah Eldon, Group Development Director at ForAfrika, shared: “once again Daryl Upsall International provided a first-class service during the recruitment for our new Development Director for North America. The process was very easy, clearly outlined from the outset and with solid advice throughout. We were presented with a number of high-quality candidates and are delighted that Jennifer is joining us with 20 years’ experience.”

We wish Jennifer and ForAfrika all the best on this new exiting fundraising journey together!
