Donnalynn Scillieri Levine I began my professional career over twenty years ago as a stock trader and with my ex-husband maintained a partnership on the New York Stock Exchange until 2004. After the partnership dissolved I sold my design firm and proceeded to Graduate School for my Masters. On a par diem basis, I analyzed college annual funds and wrote grants for Montclair State University’s Development Department. As a university grant writer I met with Deans, Chairs and faculty members to guide their projects to attain the required funding. I researched, drafted letters of inquiries, proposals and reported previous donations and correspondence to granters and contributors My Wall Street experience has aided me in creating and implementing the appropriate research, marketing, community outreach, and financial statements. From having a partnership on the New York Stock Exchange I have very strong networking skills. As the Audience Development Manager for the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra I formed corporate and cultural partnerships. The joint ventures included: cross marketing with the Newark Art Museum, Wentworth Real Estate Management Corporation, the Urban Essex League, the Wayne YM-YWHA, Essex County Public Schools, East Orange/Orange and Milburn Rotary Clubs, retirement villages around the state, AARPS, JCC’s, ELEVEN80 Properties and Korman Properties. I designed and marketed corporate sales packages to include subscriptions and catering at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center. For The Town Hall, I research potential funders, write grants, coordinate the corporate membership base and build professional relationships. In addition to fund raising, I am responsible for selected larger projects. I am negotiating with the New York Stock Exchange for support.
