Marion Therese Lee, CFRE
Chief Executive Officer
Twenty-five years ago, we coined the phrase, “Your mission matters most.” It is as true today as it was in 2000.
For 35 years, Marion has worked to help nonprofit organizations build stronger communities. Her goal is to keep our consulting services relevant to contemporary nonprofit needs and to always be flexible and open to the changing landscape. Nonprofit management, development assessments, Board and Staff education, feasibility studies, capital campaigns, and philanthropic fund management are the core services of our company.
Prior to founding Lee+ Associates, Marion served as an adventure travel leader for the Witte Museum, the Development Associate at the University of Texas Institute of Texan Cultures, Capital Campaign Director, and Assistant Executive Director for the San Antonio Public Library Foundation. As the CEO of the San Antonio Area Foundation, Marion was the youngest woman in the country chosen to lead a Community Foundation, that grew to more than $102 million during her tenure. She has served on the Boards of Rise Recovery, The Grace Center in Fredericksburg, and Any Baby Can. Marion received AFP San Antonio’s Fundraising Professional of the Year award in 2004 and is a member of the Leadership Texas class of 2007.
Listening, learning, and compassionate respect for organizational culture are the core values of Lee+ Associates.
Today, with one of the most experienced and respected teams in Texas, she looks forward to continuing to serve and support the sustainability of nonprofits.
