Announcing Hallie Hill’s Director of Development: Mike Gibbons
Meet Mike Gibbons, our new Director of Development! Mike has spent more than a decade in nonprofit fundraising, having worked in the arts and in human services. Prior to his time working with nonprofits, Mike spent 15 years in journalism as a newspaper editor, reporter and photographer. Mike lives in Mount Pleasant with his wife, Jen. They met when they were students at the University of Alabama way back in the 1990s! Mike and Jen have two grown children – Parker, a naturalist and herpetologist, and Allie, a school psychologist. Originally from Aiken, Mike moved to the Lowcountry in 2014.
Mike’s lifetime love of animals makes him the perfect match for Hallie Hill! Mike and Jen have a long history of having rescues join their family, starting with Montgomery in 1994. He was followed by basset hound Maggie, Dachshund Murphy and boxer Maddux, as well as Delilah the cat. While the Gibbons’ do not currently have any furry friends, their home is host to several reptiles and amphibians. We welcome Mike to the Hallie Hill family and look forward to working together to make the Sanctuary even better!
