Edie Blakeslee | she/her

Advisory Board Member

When we heard the news that she had retired from the Coastal Community Foundation in Charleston, SC, we immediately contacted Edie Blakeslee to ask her to join Transformation Table’s Advisory Committee. After taking some well-deserved time off, she said yes! 

Edie is now the President & CEO of the Heritage Fund of Bartholemew County (HFBC) in Columbus, Indiana, and brings a multitude of skills and experience to the committee: she is a philanthropic leader, advocate, influencer, coach, mentor, and community builder. Edie worked at the Foundation for 19 years, most recently as Vice President of Grantmaking & Community Leadership. She has hit the ground running, and we couldn’t be happier to have her.

Alandria eagerly accepted the invitation to join the Advisory Committee and is excited to contribute to the growth and expansion of such a necessary space.
