Lorraine Herbert
Account Manager
-
As a kid, Lorraine was always curious and caring, traits that shaped her love for helping others. Growing up in a supportive environment with social-justice-minded parents, she learned the importance of empathy and giving back from a young age.
Lorraine's journey in the world of giving started early on, as she got involved in community projects and fundraisers during her youth. These experiences sparked her passion for making a positive impact and paved the way for her future in philanthropy.
Throughout her formative years, Lorraine's love for learning led her to study marketing and communications, setting the stage for her role in the fundraising game. With a knack for understanding people and effective communication, she set out to learn more and give back in the charity world.
Taking inspiration from her upbringing, Lorraine found an incredible home at Agents of Good, an amazing agency all about creative fundraising that really connects with people. Guided by her unwavering commitment to making a meaningful impact, she shows up at work every day – the days she isn’t paddleboarding, mountain biking, or snowboarding – to bring stories to people who share her vision.
Today, Lorraine keeps using her skills and passion to make a difference, showing that a little kindness can go a long way.
