Meet Ken, our new Development and Membership Manager!

Hi everyone! My name is Ken Reichmann and I’m excited to join WABA as the new Development and Membership Manager! I’ll be working to implement our fundraising appeal campaigns and to increase and expand our membership to reflect the diversity of people who bike in our region.

The reliable, consistent support of members is the backbone of any sustainable nonprofit operation. I’m inspired by members and volunteers who give their time, talent, and treasure to support a mission we care about. I look forward to addressing our members’ questions and concerns, and bringing more people into the WABA membership family!

Prior to WABA, I worked as a Development Associate with Volunteer Fairfax. There I worked with the Development Team to manage and grow a varied revenue stream, and became familiar with the fundraising needs and best practices for a regional nonprofit. I had previously worked in various political, governmental, and nonprofit organizations, usually in a development position.

My experience in fundraising has given me a love for working with individual donors. WABA’s commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and antiracism is something I strongly believe in and hope to bring to my work on our fundraising and membership initiatives. I’m looking forward to bringing together people who share WABA’s vision of a just, equitable, and sustainable transportation system.

Please feel free to reach out to me at ken.reichmann@waba.org or 202-430-6385 if you have any questions or concerns regarding membership at WABA, or just to say hello!
