The Child Guidance Center of Southern Connecticut (CGC), a nonprofit agency providing mental health services to children, adolescents and their families, is pleased to announce Jamie Boris as a new member to their Board of Directors.
Boris is a partner and co-founder of DB Philanthropy Advisors, a New York-based professional consulting firm to non-profit organizations, corporations, and high-profile individuals, providing expertise in the areas of fundraising, strategic planning, marketing, grant making, public relations, and special events. She previously spent 11 years at The Ovarian Cancer Research Fund, Inc.

Boris brings a breadth of non-profit knowledge to CGC’s Board, as she has over 15 years of experience with all elements of organization fundraising, including creating innovative special events, corporate partnerships, cause-related marketing campaigns, and cultivating relations with donors and celebrities. “We couldn’t be more thrilled about this new addition to our Board,” said CGC’s President and CEO, Dr. Eliot Brenner. “To have a Board member that has so much hands-on experience in the non-profit sector can only add to our repertoire of innovative initiatives.”
