Gary Romero, Director of Grants Management, and Ellen Solowey, Senior Program Officer Retire Today

Today Piper Trust shines a light on two long-time colleagues who have each dedicated 15 years of their time and talents to the Trust’s mission and to the community. Gary Romero, Director of Grants Management, and Ellen Solowey, Senior Program Officer retire today. Gary integrated the vital role of grants management across the organization. Ellen approached program design and grantmaking with vigor and intellect. Both handled their responsibilities with passion and a drive to make a difference—which they did—and we are all in a better place because of them. We are full of gratitude for Ellen and Gary as we reflect on their accomplishments, celebrate them as friends, and wish them well as they each move on to new things. Please join us in thanking them and wishing them well!
