Sara Sindija

Director of Major Gifts & Strategy, West

I cultivate relationships with major donors and lead fundraising efforts on the West Coast of the U.S.

My Background

Most recently, I served as interim co-CEO and previously as chief finance and operations officer at the Forestry and Fire Recruitment Program, a nonprofit organization that provides career training and development to formerly and currently incarcerated firefighters. While there, I executed an eight-figure fundraising campaign, and spearheaded organizational growth and innovation.

I began my career with Human Rights Watch and continued on with policy advocacy work around extreme sentencing in California.

I hold a master’s degree from the London School of Economics and a bachelor’s degree in peace and conflict studies from UC Berkeley.
