Farewell, Emma!
We have some big news to share with our community today. Path Home’s long-term Development Director, Emma Hoyle, is leaving Path Home after seven years. We’re so grateful to her for her critical role in the significant growth we’ve experienced these past few years and wish her much success in her new role at College Possible.
With support from Emma’s stewardship, Path Home’s contributed revenue has increased from $607,661 a year to more than $2m a year. Her most notable success was completing a $5.2m Capital Campaign to purchase and remodel the Family Village Campus, modeling the transformative impact of trauma-informed practice and design. She helped expand Portland’s first Family Homelessness Prevention Program, entirely funded by individuals and foundations. And most recently, Emma was instrumental in changing our name and growing our brand from Portland Homeless Family Solutions to Path Home.
“My work at Path Home has been the most meaningful of my life. It has been an immense privilege to raise money to support families and children experiencing homelessness and housing instability. I am so grateful for the relationships I have built with donors, volunteers, staff, and this community. I will remain a big supporter and advocate of the organization, I’ll just be joining the community side as a donor and volunteer.”
Emma has accepted the position of Individual Giving & Major Gifts Officer for College Possible, another wonderful organization empowering youth in our community. We know you’ll join us in wishing her well.
