About Cecilia Douglass
With over 14 years of experience in marketing, sales, grant writing, community engagement, and strategic planning, I am passionate about helping businesses and nonprofits in Southwest Kansas grow and thrive. I specialize in fostering sustainable development through strategic partnerships, outreach, and effective leadership.
My background includes serving on multiple boards, participating in ambassador programs, and leading initiatives in event planning, volunteer recruitment, fundraising, and organizational development. I have also guided organizations in strategic planning and financial sustainability to support long-term success.
