Look Out, San Francisco!

May 02, 2008

Heralding more exciting times at Commongood Careers, we are proud to announce the launch of our San Francisco office!

For the past several years, we have been honored to help facilitate hires at several West Coast-based organizations, such as Kiva, TechSoup, Room to Read, Craigslist Foundation, Breakthrough Collaborative and Springboard Forward. As many of our national partners are focused on scaling their programs and operating sites across the country, we’ve also been able to help support the regional growth of the Nonprofit Finance Fund, College Summit, City Year and others. Helping these amazing organizations has inspired our own expansion into the Bay Area.

Heading up the office as Regional Director is Missy Longshore. Missy brings nine years of experience in nonprofit organizations and most recently served as the Business Development Manager at New Door Ventures. She served as a nonprofit management consultant at TDC after completing her MBA with a concentration in Public and Nonprofit Management at Boston University. Her prior nonprofit work in the Bay Area included work in advocacy, public television, and youth development. Missy can be reached at or 415-531-3998.

Joining Missy as a transplant from Boston is one of our senior Service Managers, Kevin Flynn.  Prior to his work at Commongood, Kevin was with National TenPoint Leadership Foundation, working with high risk and gang involved youth to reduce violence in the most underserved neighborhoods in cities through the country. Kevin holds a bachelor’s degree in English from Boston College and is a board member of the Boston chapter of Young Nonprofit Professionals Network (YNPN).

Hitting the ground running, Missy and Kevin are already hard at work supporting our existing West Coast clients, connecting with new organizations, developing connections with local talent pipelines, and generally enhancing our nationwide capacity for social impact. Keep your ears open for exciting workshops, programs, and networking opportunities made available through our new office.

Thanks to all of the talented individuals and dynamic organizations that have made this growth possible. We are so excited to help to create even more social impact from our new office on the West Coast!
