Meet VOA's Senior Director of Fund Development

Dave Bell is from the coast of Virginia near Virginia Beach and started his non-profit career early, working as a summer camp counselor at the YMCA. His summer job turned into a 20-year career with YMCA and eventually lead him to Louisville.

In Louisville, Dave spent five years as the Executive Director of the Downtown Louisville YMCA. He then went on to oversee Fund Development, Marketing, Membership and Government Relations efforts for the Kentucky Science Center.

Dave came to Volunteers of America Mid-States after working with Louisville Metro Government. He has quickly fallen in love with VOA's mission of serving our community's most vulnerable and creating lasting, positive change.

"I truly love the work we do, the people we serve and the culture of this team," Dave said.

When he is not working, he is spending time with his partner, Megan, and their three children camping, hiking, eating at some of Louisville's incredible taco restaurants or attending Sam, Seth, and Corbin’s soccer games.
