SCAN's New Development Director

Eager to work in an organization he has always admired, David LeFebvre joined Greater Richmond SCAN as Development Director in November of 2014. "Since moving to Richmond, I have always heard of SCAN's great reputation and high impact within the community." said David.

Growing up in Omaha, Nebraska, David knew he wanted to be involved with his community. In high school David was an active volunteer and involved in community organizations. After studying non-profit leadership at Rockhurst University in Kansas City, Missouri, David decided he wanted to move into the Development field for his career.

"I discovered that Development was the best of both worlds for me. I was able to continue to see the mission in action every day, but also help engage and connect with the community by including them as part of the process." said David.
