Abigail Havens

Development Coordinator

Though originally from Oregon, Abigail traveled all over the country after completing her bachelor’s degree in Interdisciplinary Studies. She lived in South Korea, where she taught English as a second language. This sparked an interest in linguistics, leading her to get a master’s degree in the subject from the University of Oregon. Abigail manages donor relations at the Fund, including the upkeep of the donor database and the issuing of tax receipts.

“Our donors make the mission of the Fund possible. We’re so grateful for their contributions, which really do make a difference. I’m happy to play a role in the work the Fund accomplishes.”

Around the office, Abi is known for her impeccable sense of style and quiet, biting wit. She’s also an avid reader and salsa dancing aficionado.

What are three things you have no patience for?
Circular logic, pettiness, and hard-to-peel oranges.
