Vermont Land Trust recently welcomed Sasha Vaut, former director of philanthropy at the Vermont Symphony Orchestra, as development director, and Maggie Herrick, who has spent the last decade in operations roles within the food sector, as bookkeeper.
Vaut has worked for 16 years in the fields of philanthropy and nonprofit management, supporting the Vermont arts and health-related organizations in the Boston area. She is a graduate of Syracuse University and a certified fundraising executive.
“Sasha brings a wealth of expertise in development for nonprofit organizations,” said Abby White, VLT’s vice president of engagement. “With her fundraising experience and her passion for VLT’s mission, Sasha will help our organization garner more support to help us do more — for the land and for all of us who live here.”
Herrick joins VLT with a strong background in accounting, operations and human resources. She graduated from the University of Colorado and worked in New York City before moving to Vermont.
