Marleise Brosnan raises $2865 and $5730 with company match.
my name is Marleise Brosnan, I lived in NYC for the past 6 years. My company is located in NYC and 90% of the money I raised was from colleagues and friends in NYC.
My previous employer is Macquarie Bank Limited (MBL), an Australian owned financial services firm. I am the former Head of Human Resources for Macquarie Holdings USA. I left my postition with Macquarie at the end of June to pursue a graduate degree in Health Advocacy at Sarah Lawrence College. My motivation and desire to transition from the corporate world to the health care industry and specifically health advocacy is partly a result of my experience with my former husband (Casey Bank) battle with ALS. I am currently living in Ridgefield, CT while I attend school at Sarah Lawrence.
I think the online method was successful through no effort on my part. Most of my personal friends and work colleagues conduct the bulk of their personal and professional business online and therefore they were very familiar with the process and comfortable with handling financial matters through the online medium. I will say I had one person who had difficulty making a contribution through the website and I was grateful for your quick and personal response to him. He also greatly appreciated that you called him personally to assist him.
