Casey Salm

Associate Donor Engagement Officer

Casey works with a portfolio of donors to help them achieve their giving goals.  Her priority is to provide fund advisors with responsive grantmaking support and enriching learning opportunities.

Before assuming her current position, Casey served as the assistant to the senior vice president of donor experience and engagement for three years.  In that role she had the great pleasure of working closely with community foundation donors with a wide variety of philanthropic interests.  Prior to joining the community foundation, Casey worked in development and special events at TheatreWorks. She holds a bachelor's degree in creative arts and is currently pursuing a master's degree in justice studies. Casey’s personal passion is social justice.  Pursuing a degree in justice studies is providing her a framework to understand complex social problems and giving her the tools to help solve them.

She is an eighth-generation native of San Francisco and feels that she has gained a great deal of perspective regarding how best to serve the community through her unique upbringing. She loves animals, movies and comfort food.
