Rachael joined the ACLU of Delaware in May 2022 as a Development Strategist. Originally from Florida, she has spent the past five years at the Delaware Historical Society, most recently as their Donor and Grants Manager. She brings a background in grant writing and fundraising to the organization, as well as a unique humanities perspective.
Rachael is passionate about LGBTQ+ rights and ensuring access to reproductive healthcare. She is excited to be making a bigger positive impact on the Delaware community by contributing to the growth of ACLU-DE. Rachael holds bachelor’s degrees in Anthropology and Classics from the University of Florida, and when she’s not strategizing our next grant, you can find her reading, hiking, and camping.
