As the leaves fall, we’re heading into a new season here at Side by Side. Celebrating our staff, we’re highlighting three new hires and giving one fond farewell. Please welcome to the team: Brooke Kamke serves as Side by Side’s Senior Director of Growth Strategy, helping lead the organization’s expansion into rural communities across Georgia. She brings more than 20 years of nonprofit and operational leadership experience, with a focus on building the people, systems, and partnerships needed for sustainable growth. At Side by Side, Brooke is working alongside the team to strengthen operations and help bring the Clubhouse model to more brain injury survivors and families across Georgia. Dan Reingold serves as Side by Side’s Director of Development and Marketing Dan brings more than 15 years in commercial leadership building sustainable sales and marketing teams for respected emerging brands. At Side by Side, Dan is working alongside the team to build the development, marketing and communications systems with one goal in mind: making sure more people know about Georgia’s first and only Clubhouse dedicated exclusively to adults living with acquired brain injury. Inaya Champion serves as Programming Coordinator supporting our Members Kitchen Unit. A graduate of Howard University, Inaya provides a steady, guiding hand to our Members who wish to prep and serve meals for other Members and Staff at the Clubhouse. A kitchen is a great place to rebuild skills: timing, sequencing, teamwork, and the satisfaction of feeding a room full of people. And a special thank you to Laura Pettit, our outgoing Fundraising and Marketing Director, who leaves us at the end of November following a relocation. If you’ve opened a thank-you letter, an email or an annual report from Side by Side, Laura likely had a hand in it, including this year’s Annual Report, coming soon! Join us in celebrating her and all our new hires in the comments - We’ll miss you, Laura. Next time you’re at the Clubhouse, say hello to Brooke, Dan and Inaya! #sidebyside #braininjury #clubhousemodel #atlantanonprofits #braininjuryawareness
