Kim Rossi

VP of Philanthropy & Corporate Development
Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

It was a 20+ year career in (on-air) radio before transitioning to the world of non-profit fundraising. This proved to be the life changing and impactful work I was looking to do. 

I have recently joined a dynamic team of people at Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds as their VP of Philanthropy & Corporate Development. As a former BNP client having done two customized natural outdoor play and learning spaces, I knew that my passion to make a difference aligned with theirs.

Nature IS the solution and the way forward.  

Our mission is to connect ONE MILLION children to nature every day, by 2030.
