Watch Now: Interview with Jill Monum, Vice President of Development & Marketing at Grameen America.

Jill has spent her career engaged in mission-driven work with a focus on women’s empowerment in both the corporate and nonprofit sectors.

Orr Group initially partnered with Grameen America in 2018 to develop and implement a $300M campaign aimed at doubling its size and impact over 10 years. Our partnership helped Grameen America double its best previous fundraising year and exceed its full campaign goal two years early. Most recently, we re-engaged in 2023 to design its latest $600M campaign as part of an ambitious $1B growth initiative.
