Hi, I’m Chanda Lockhart.

[she/her]

I love fundraising and marketing. I might be the last fundraiser who believes (most) events are still worth it (if you know what your goal is going in). I believe we should always ask, and the worst thing that can happen is a “no.”

I bring two decades of fundraising, marketing and leadership experience from small, grassroots to mid-size nonprofit organizations with missions serving PK-12 education, LGBTQIA+ services, food access and security, and the arts.

I’m excited to start working with you on your next project!


Current and Recent Clients

I love working with San Francisco Bay Area-based nonprofit organizations that are serving youth, families, educators, and historically and multiply-marginalized folks. These are just a few of teams I’ve worked with: Her Idea, Parents for Public Schools SF, Positive Coaching Alliance, Queer Arts Featured and We Care Children.

Her Idea

Her Idea mentors youth as they pursue an idea or passion through a real-world project of their own design. We support their learning and skills development, provide access to funding for their projects, and help them build a network of community support.

We are a place of creativity, connection, and healing for the Queer community and those who love us.
