Statewide nonprofit Arkansas Single Parent Scholarship Fund (ASPSF) is pleased to announce Christine Gronwald as its new Director of Development.
Gronwald started Aug. 5 and brings 24 years of nonprofit and marketing experience to the organization. In her role, she will lead fundraising efforts to expand support for low-income single parents pursuing higher education.
Most recently, Gronwald served as the Director of Development for the EAST Initiative, where she successfully led fundraising activities and enhanced donor engagement. Additionally, her development background includes positions at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Central Arkansas Library System, and Central Arkansas Radiation Therapy Institute.
Gronwald is also highly involved with the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP), Greater Arkansas Chapter. During her 10 years with AFP, she served as President in 2020 and 2021, was elected to various committees, and remains active with AFP Global.
“I am thrilled to welcome Christine to our team,” said Jenn Morehead, Executive Director of ASPSF. “Her impressive experience and results-driven approach give me great confidence in her ability to lead our fundraising efforts. I look forward to the growth and success we will achieve together.”
Gronwald earned her Bachelor of Arts in communications with an emphasis in business and a minor in marketing from the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville. She also holds a Master of Business Administration from Capella University where she graduated with honors and was inducted into the Delta Mu Delta honors society. She was elected to Maumelle City Council in January 2023.
“I hold education at all levels in very high regard,” Gronwald said. “It’s something that has been instilled in me my whole life. My mom was a 40-year educator at Little Rock School District, both as a teacher and a principal. I believe growth through education should be accessible to anyone seeking growth, and ASPSF aligns with those values well.”
A Little Rock native, Gronwald moved to Maumelle in 2014 with her husband, Jason; two stepdaughters, Zoe and Gigi; and their four rescue dogs. She is a member of Rotary International, Maumelle Philanthropists, and the All Inclusive Playground Committee for the city of Maumelle.
