She is passionate about philanthropy and designing tools to make it easier for businesses to give meaningfully and strategically and to lessen the barriers to success and mutual communication across the giving lifecycle for charities and donors alike.\nTalena is Founder and CEO of the startup company\, Mission Limelight. Mission Limelight provides a suite of solutions that help non-profits raise more money for their cause\, and businesses drive greater success by dovetailing their philanthropic and marketing goals and telling the true story of how their giving has a social impact.\nMission Limelight recently launched their first solution online\, the Mission Limelight Exchange\, which helps non-profits raise more money by exchanging locally-sourced auction packages that fail to excite their local audiences\, with other non-profits across the country. This powerful tool revamps fundraising auction lineups to build exponentially greater auction attendance\, enthusiasm and fundraising capability.
