Michael Luck, a seasoned professional leader in the field of Institutional Advancement with more than 35 years’ experience speaks to nonprofit organizers on fundraising. His career spans healthcare, education and dozens of consulting assignments for non profit organizations. He is currently advising Burlington College as they move ahead with a major expansion.
