Marisa Rafal

Director of Leadership Giving, COLA
Phone: 603-862-0043
Office: Elliott Alumni Center

Supervisor's Name: Cailand Lainey
Start Date at UNH: 2025

Job Description: 
I connect people with the causes they care about at the College of Liberal Arts (COLA). I find synergies between their passions, and COLA's priorities, so they feel empowered to make a difference through their philanthropy.

Hobbies: 
I go for runs, attempt to read books more than I scroll through social media (work in progress), and have a long-standing goal of teaching myself how to cook!

Favorite Part of the Job: 
As a double-alum I am probably biased, but what I like best is that UNH never shies away from a challenge. The ethos is always one of collaborating to find solutions and make the world a better place. The natural beauty of the campus is an added bonus!
