Muadi B. Dibinga is the founder and CEO of Bijimba Consulting. She has worked in the non-profit sector for over twenty years and has extensive experience in nonprofit management, fundraising and development, workshop facilitation, and special events planning. Ms. Dibinga began her formal fundraising career in 1992 when she was hired as the first associate director for the Southern Center for Human Rights. At that time, the Center was at a critical juncture in its then 16-year history. The group had been informed that, after over a decade of support, its largest funder had changed its grant-making guidelines and was phasing out its support. The withdrawal of those funds posed a significant threat to the survival of the organization. Ms. Dibinga was hired to implement a plan to keep the Center from closing its doors.

  Together with the Center’s stellar executive director, board and staff, Ms. Dibinga was able to create and implement a fundraising and development plan that allowed the organization to continue and expand its programs. During her tenure, she produced the organization’s first annual benefit dinner which net over $75,000, created the organization’s first newsletter, created the organization’s first personnel and policies procedures manual, and doubled its individual contributions. Since leaving the Center in 1997 Ms. Dibinga has worked with several nonprofit organizations as a staff person or consultant including the American Friends Service Committee/Critical Breakdown Project, the Association of the Bar of the City of New York Fund, Gilda’s Club of New York City, Green Guerillas, the Mike Handy Foundation and Fund, OrigiNation Cultural Arts Center, and the South End/Lower Roxbury Youth Workers’ Alliance. Ms. Dibinga is a former Adjunct Professor at New York University’s Center for Philanthropy and Fundraising where she taught Fundraising Concepts and Practice, Grant Writing, and Fundraising for Writing.
