Juliet Inyangala TsumaHead of Communications

I work at the intersection of business development, communications for development, partnerships, and donor relations, helping organizations secure funding, build strategic relationships, and strengthen their visibility and influence.
Over the past 10 years, I have led and supported initiatives that connect organizations with donors, partners, and key stakeholders, translating program impact into compelling narratives that attract funding and collaboration. My experience spans grant acquisition, donor relations, partnership development, advocacy, and strategic communications, with a strong focus on positioning organizations for growth and sustainability.
I have overseen both internal and external communications strategies, supporting brand positioning, media engagement, stakeholder outreach, and thought leadership. Alongside communications, I contribute to business development efforts by supporting proposal development, donor intelligence, partnership cultivation, and the design of initiatives that align with donor priorities and organizational goals.
My work also includes events and campaign management, knowledge management, and stakeholder engagement, ensuring that communication and partnerships contribute directly to program impact and organizational growth.
I am particularly passionate about building meaningful partnerships and mobilizing resources to support initiatives that strengthen communities, expand opportunity, and create lasting impact.
Through innovation, stewardship, and accountability, I aim to deliver value to both the organizations I serve and the communities they support.
