Hi everyone,
TIdes, our fiscal sponsor, will be doing a site visit next Friday, July 12th at 11am.  It would be good to have another or other staff members there with me when we meet.  You can get a better picture of our relationship to Tides and how that shapes some of the ways we operate.  

Let me know if you can be there.
Lara

Hi Luba,

Welcome back.  Next Friday, July 12th at 11 works best for us.  I will try to see if others from AROC can also join.

Look forward to meeting you,
Lara

Hi Lara,

 

I am back from vacation and wanted to follow up with you on a site visit.  This is an opportunity for Tides & AROC to meet and get caught up on each other.  I am inviting some of my colleagues to join us, not sure who will ultimately come along but wanted to share with you and if you wish to invite your colleagues too, that would be wonderful. 

 

I ran a report on AROC’s activities and Advisory Board, you will find them attached, please let us know if the information in these reports matches your understanding.  If I am missing anything, please let me know.  You are also welcome to add your comments to the reports and send back to me, or we can review during our visit along with anything else you would like to discuss. 

 

If you have any questions for us please feel free to provide and we can arrange the responses for our meeting or I can try to find answers now if anything is pressing.

Hi Lara,

 

I hope you are well? I wanted to give you a bit of an update.  Although I am officially your new contact person at Tides, my contact information is below, I am going on vacation next week for 2 weeks (I am out June 17 – 26). 

 

My communication preferences are flexible; I am available via email and Skype as well as phone.  I am happy to meet your style of communication for what works best in the support of sharing information.  If you are on Skype please be sure to connect with me.

 

While I am on vacation, the person covering my responsibility will be Bella Celnik, I have copied her here, her email address is bce...@tides.org and her direct phone number is 415.561.6320.

 

When I return from vacation I will arrange a phone call or an in-person meeting between us so we may discuss how things are going at AROC, as well as your current and future plans for AROC.  Please be on the lookout for that invitation and let me know if you have any questions now which should be addressed in the near future?

 

I also wanted to let you know that Tides will be closed on July 4 and 5 in observance of Independence Day which affects our check run as outlined below. 

 

Respectfully,

Luba

Hi Lara,

 
I hope this email finds you well. I’m writing to let you know about my upcoming transition. At of the end of next week, I will be transitioning out of my role at Tides. Effective next Monday, June 10th,  Luba Palionny will be supporting your fund and can be reached at ­­­­lu...@tides.org.  In preparation for this change, I have already started working with Luba and will be here until June 14th to support these funds and ensure that this transition is  smooth and seamless for you.

 

Since joining Tides in 2002, Luba has supported various departments of this organization. Luba has covered many areas of Tides from Administration to the CEO’s executive office.  Most recently Luba gained client support experience as a Senior Client Specialist in the Client Services Department.  Her experience and wide breadth of Tides knowledge has been an integral part of her success.  Luba has a strong work ethic and personal commitment to excellent service. She is a native San Franciscan and enjoys exploring the city’s parks and treasures with her feisty young son, Terrance Jr.   


This next step is a great opportunity that would not have been available to me if it weren’t for the amazing experience I’ve gained working with projects such as yours while here at Tides. My personal contact information is below. Please  feel free to drop me a line and I hope to connect with you soon.

 

As well, I have cc’ed Casey Budesilich here, Director of Client Services. Please do not hesitate to reach out either to me, or directly to him, should you need any help or want to discuss the transition plan in more detail.


I have truly  felt honored to support the great work that you do, and I wish you and your team the best.


Thank you, 
Nicole
