As a deeply passionate member of the nonprofit community for more than 15 years, Adva Priso has led cutting-edge fundraising, activation, and communications campaigns throughout her career. Currently, as senior vice president of marketing and development at Anne Lewis Strategies, Adva develops digital strategy and oversees its execution on behalf of nonprofit clients large and small across numerous verticals, including Mercy Corps, Doctors Without Borders, Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation, Hias and National Partnership for Women and Families.

Prior to joining Anne Lewis Strategies, Adva led the digital program for high-value members and prospects at World Wildlife Fund. She generated and oversaw millions in new revenue for WWF and pioneered multi-channel mid-level donor cultivation and fundraising best practices that are just now starting to be adopted by other nonprofits.

Adva regularly educates marketers on best practices in digital fundraising and marketing – as well as shares insider strategies and tactics the industry has yet to widely adopt. She is a frequent speaker at national nonprofit conferences and a published writer on topics ranging from grassroots acquisition to mid-level donor engagement. Adva graduated from the University of Minnesota with a degree in broadcast journalism.
