Inspiration
What inspired Meagan to work with nonprofits?

Fun Facts about Meagan.
“Our blended family of six kids are seasoned nonprofit helpers. They have completed mailings and database work for many organizations throughout the years!”
What led to Meagan Choosing Loving Venti?
“I admire our fearless leader, Catherine! I share her passion for helping small-to-medium-sized nonprofits. They often have less access to support and best practices because they are so busy living their mission, and to help organizations do their best work is really an honor.”
