Donna joined WDN in 2002 for the opportunity to "further strengthen and empower the progressive movement for change through my work with individual members, as well as through representation of the collective body that is WDN." "We are all united by similar values and the desire to be empowered as women, philanthropists, and activists," Donna says. "The whole, as a group, is a power in itself."

In her spare time, Donna enjoys spending time with her husband and three sons, as well as their two dogs. Her hobbies include traveling, hiking and listening to classical and jazz music.
