New Mexico Nonprofit Leader: Margaret Ambler Salamon, Center for Nonprofit Excellence

Posted as part of Nonprofit Career Month, featuring the diversity
of career opportunities in the nonprofit sector. Today’s guest is
Margaret Ambler Salamon, Research Specialist and wearer of many
other hats at the Center for Nonprofit Excellence in Albuqueque,
NM. The Center for Nonprofit Excellence is a collaborative effort
of the United Way of Central New Mexico and the Albuquerque
Community Foundation and aims to strengthen the capacity of the
nonprofit sector through building collaborations, educating donors,
and increase the effective management of nonprofits. Margaret’s
passion for nonprofit organizations began in 2000 with a ten-month
term with Public Allies, a national apprenticeship program focused
on building young leadership while strengthening communities. Amy
Potthast chats with Margaret about her career path, the excellent
work that the Center for Nonprofit Excellence and Public Allies are
doing to strengthen the nonprofit community, and what it's like to
work at the hub of many community organizations.
