A junior at Rhodes majoring in international studies and mandarin, Eleanor has been a part of Circle for 6 years. Having joined as a freshman in her high school chapter, she served as Fundraising lead on her chapter’s leadership for several years. She is excited about continuing this work as a member of the Management Team, and is ready to showcase her skills and experience to further her interest in gender equality and women’s education! Eleanor looks forward to a great year of fundraising and reconnecting with our chapters and donor base.

Malini is a sophomore at the University of Pennsylvania majoring in Economics. She has been a part of Circle for 4 years now, and is originally from Los Angeles, California. She joined Circle because she wants to support education for young girls and hopes to start a chapter to allow her community to make a difference. Malini is excited to meet the chapters and to work alongside such a strong group of women!

The Director of Fundraising is responsible for coordinating fundraising efforts with each chapter of Circle of Women, as well as private and corporate donors. She helps each chapter and the organization as a whole develop long-term fundraising plans.
