BIO:
Rhonda Mattingly has over 20 years’ experience in grant writing, fundraising and executive management and over 14 years’ experience working for non-profit agencies.
After her personal experience in a domestic violence relationship she returned to college where she attained a degree in Psychology with a minor in Sociology from Wayne State College.
She put that degree to use first as a Child Protection & Safety worker for the Ponca Tribe of NE and later was selected as Executive Director for a non-profit Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault agency in Norfolk.
Rhonda and her two children moved to Lincoln in 2005 where she worked for UNL in the Bureau of Sociological Research Department, as Director of Operations, for a grant funded study with Native Americans. Once the project was complete, she stayed with UNL as a Budget/Business Coordinator for the College of Education and Human Sciences.
The non-profit arena is her passion so she feels back at home as the Executive Director for Bridges to Hope since February of 2015 and Founder of Bud’s Thrift Shoppe since November of 2017.
