Nice to Meet You

Hey there, I’m Maddie! I am passionate about social change and have extensive experience in program development, social work, and community engagement. As a co-founder of Overground Railroad to Literacy, a non-profit providing after-school tutoring, meals, and supplies to students in Saint Louis Public Schools, I’ve worked to address critical educational needs by securing grants, hosting fundraisers, and increasing tutor recruitment by 120% in a single semester.

Throughout my career, I’ve raised over $2 million in funding and managed multi-million-dollar budgets, allowing me to successfully implement programs, analyze data, and build strategic partnerships with community and government organizations. My leadership in fundraising and special projects has consistently driven positive outcomes, and I’m committed to creating lasting impact through my work.
