Christine Reeves Strigaro

On a mission for a just Georgia, Christine leverages every form of philanthropic capital – grant, endowment, human, partnership, advocacy, convening, strategy, and more. In doing so, she helps a dedicated and dynamic team build relationships, catalyze solutions for systemic problems, lift up Georgia as a destination for social and environmental justice, and embrace creativity and new ideas. With equal conviction, Christine believes philanthropy is a team sport for championing grantee partners and ensuring communities are participants and leaders, not only recipients.
