Celebrating 10 Years of Dedication!
Ten years ago, Zibby Crawford joined the RLS Foundation as the Marketing and Communications Coordinator alongside newly appointed executive director Karla Dzienkowski. This powerful duo spent weeks traveling to the Foundation’s Rochester headquarters to learn the ropes from outgoing staff and move the foundation to Austin. Ten years later, we celebrate Zibby’s 10th Anniversary with the company and her unwavering dedication.
Every organization has one individual with a vast set of experiences that makes them a “jack of all trades.” If you were to look this up in the dictionary, you’d find Zibby’s name! She has covered many areas of responsibility, from being editor of NightWalkers to planning and coordinating webinars and conferences to overseeing the Foundation’s website. She has now taken on the Membership Coordinator role. It’s a good thing she is the ultimate multitasker!
Before the Foundation, Zibby worked in the high-tech industry but fell in love with the nonprofit sector when she served on the board of the National Charity League, Capital of Texas Chapter (where she met Karla). Zibby's warm and outgoing personality makes her a joy to work with. She always has a book recommendation at the ready! She shares her experience and makes herself available to teach a new skill or lend a hand. She has raised four kids, all still living in Austin, and is now “Gammie” to four grandchildren.
Zibby’s motto is “Spread joy!” and she carries that spirit with her each and every day.
