[Carla Perscky](https://www.anglersforconservation.org/blog/author/carla-perscky) 14 September, 2025 ![](https://www.anglersforconservation.org/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/heather.jpg?width=271&height=320&name=heather.jpg "heather")We would like to take a moment and introduce you to the newest member of our staff, Heather Sears.  Heather is our Fund raiser/Event Coordinator; and she brings with her a huge amount of experience in the realm of nonprofit event planning and fund raising.  We’ve mentioned before the need for the AFC to take the “next step” in organizational planning to further achieve our goals and we believe Heather’s past experience along with her passion to protect our marine resources will help us achieve that step. Over the years, resources, equipment, people, money and opportunities have always seemed present themselves at the perfect time to help the AFC when the need arrived.  Heather’s desire to spend more time with her family and still have an active role in conservation fits into that pattern exactly, what a score! Welcome to the team Heather and we look forward to working with you as we raise the next generation of marine stewards.
