Clarke spent the next three years learning the nuances of monitoring and evaluation fieldwork in Zambia, as well as learning more about international program management, and training and facilitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He worked Operation Eyesight and the United Way of Greater Victoria. Looking to have a greater impact on the systemic funding issues facing nonprofits, Clarke moved further up the philanthropic stream and began as a Client Manager at Benevity, a tech company that facilitates the corporate philanthropic programs of many of the largest enterprise companies in the world. Working with clients like Microsoft Global, TELUS, Intuit and Macquarie, Clarke developed a complementary understanding of the charitable landscape through the lens of corporate social responsibility (CSR), donor-advised funds, and corporate purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clarke is now the Enablement Advisor for Client Success at Benevity and is responsible for educating CSR program managers on social impact strategy, impact measurement, and effective nonprofit partnership.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Clarke completed his BA Combined Honours in International Development Studies, Political Science and Gender Studies from Dalhousie University in 2013.
