Ellen Pope to Serve as Maine Seacoast Mission Development Director


The Maine Seacoast Mission has announced that Ellen Pope will be the Mission's new director of development. A resident of Southwest Harbor, Ms. Pope most recently served as vice president and chief operating officer for the Maine Community Foundation.

"I am very pleased that Ellen Pope will be bringing her experience and talents as a nonprofit executive to the Maine Seacoast Mission,” says Mission president Scott Planting. “With her strong background in donor development, planned giving, management and communications, she is the right person to move the Mission forward and build support for our vital programs well into the future.”

Ellen Pope says, "I feel so fortunate to be selected to work for an organization with as compelling a purpose as the Maine Seacoast Mission—supporting and encouraging island and coastal communities with health, education, social and spiritual services and programs for more than 100 years.”
