Lucas Turner, Community Engagement Manager of East Coast, buildOn

Lucas is driven by purpose and social impact, and his career is fueled by a drive towards being dynamic, while giving back to the world. Working for buildOn, TOMS, charity: water and Krochet Kids International helped Lucas develop a unique skill set. Traveling abroad for a living, working with underserved communities, and living in solidarity with others give Lucas extreme compassion. His social entrepreneurship experiences have taught him the importance of putting impact as the bottom line. All of this led him to a robust career in development, where he credits his fundraising success to having ample on the ground field experience with buildOn.
