About Melissa:
Melissa Klein is thrilled to join RRPF on a contract basis to build on the organization’s fundraising strategies, donor relations, and development planning. She is a seasoned non profit leader having served development efforts at PBS Utah, Utah Symphony | Utah Opera, and Onstage Ogden in both grants and major donors.
