Allison Rabbit

With over 24 years of experience in Development and Individual Giving, Allison

Rabbitt brings unparalleled expertise and heart to every project. She has

Allison is the Boss Lady at RoosterRabbitt Consulting where she supports

nonprofits throughout the region with strategic fundraising counsel for capital

campaigns, individual giving programs, and interim development leadership. In

addition, she is the Consulting Director of Community Investment for Watershed

Community Development and their major urban renewal project, The Bend, a

Allison enjoys spending time with her family, friends and dog, sculpting cakes for

people she loves, playing accordion and lifting weights (not at the same time!)

Serving on the board of Soulumination means I can support the meaningful work

of supporting people during an extraordinary time in their lives and creating

legacies. I care deeply about the service that Soulumination provides to families

during a brutally difficult time in their life, when a photo session is probably the

last thing on a families’ mind. I treasure photos, I’ve spent days of my life

reflecting on the images of my ancestors, events from my life, the smiles of my

children as small people when they are now big people, change is constant and

photos capture a person, a moment, in a way that little else can. I also love

building connections behind the scenes, doing the surprising thing that makes

someone feel seen, cherished, and have a sense of belonging. Soulumination

does this! Soulumination extends the impact that one life can have in the world.
