Angelique Palomar

“I became the Jane of all Trades because of AP. From being an electrician to coordinating events, it was like getting to try a new piece of chocolate from a See’s Candy box! As a fundraising assistant, I was in-charge of maintaining the donor database and drafting emails to AP’s massive network. All while getting the hang of Global Giving, Network for Good and Constant Contact, I took on the role of Communications and Media Outreach Assistant. Every day was different, filled with a variety of work from designing graphics, to asking my friends and family in helping with a Global Giving campaign appeal. I even learned basic HTML coding! The biggest project I managed was quilt outreach. I coordinated events with solidarity groups from various universities.

I’ve gained invaluable skills, knowledge and lasting friendships from my time at AP. Here I am thinking I would be contributing to marginalized communities, little did I know how much this experience would return to me in ten-folds. I am incredibly proud to be a part of a truly impactful organization. Cheers!”
