This month we are saying a fond farewell to Dalcetta Palepale, who has served on our staff as Outreach and Development Specialist since November of 2023. Dalcetta’s positivity lit up our weekly team meetings, and her care and compassion shone through every time she worked with a faith community on the Foundation’s behalf. Please join us in wishing her all the best! Moving forward, you can find Dalcetta at the Burke Museum’s “In The Artist’s studio” events, where her work is featured in the Oceana collection.
