NEW Staff - Meet Jodi!
Jodi O'Toole recently joined the Element 74 team on January 2 to work with the Coalition Manager Support Staff.

She’s worked with non-profits for most of her career, supporting database, website and IT operations.

She and her husband Bart have two high school teens, with one starting college soon. She also shares her house with her two dogs and is an avid runner. In the few minutes she has available to watch TV, its likely she’ll be diving into a documentary, watching sci-fi, or a hockey game.
ACH PAYMENTS for STRIPE
NEW FEATURE COMING SOON
