To Whom It May Concern:
Amy Brooks worked as a valued member on the American Cancer Society Queens Region as a Freelance Recruiter for the Making Strides
against Breast Cancer Walk from May, 2012 to the beginning of November, 2012. As a Freelance Recruiter, Amy worked diligently and professionally
on her daily tasks of recruitment, fundraising, sales and relationship building. Amy’s strength in developing relationships, perseverance on
the phones and teaching people how to fundraise and be successful team leaders made Amy very successful with her constituents.
In her time here Amy made her short and long-term goals with recruitment and fund- raising. Her recruitment and relationship building
skills brought in terrific individual fundraisers as well as many successful fundraising teams.
Many teams and participants built a level of trust with Amy which made them even more successful, and Amy’s ability to connect with her team
leaders and participants made their experience in the event so much more meaningful and valuable.
Amy Brooks was a great contributor in her time in the Queens office, and helped our office raise $905,000 for the Making Strides against
Breast Cancer walk.
I fully recommend Amy to be a part of any organization, and her skills and work ethic would be an asset and would contribute to the success
of that organization’s visions and goals. I would be happy to discuss Amy’s skills in terms of potential future employment with your organization.
