About Us

Kivi Leroux Miller is the Founder and CEO of Nonprofit Marketing Guide, where she is the lead trainer and coach for hundreds of nonprofit communicators and participants in the Communications Director Mentoring Program each year. She is also the award-winning author of three books on nonprofit marketing and communications used in many university and certificate programs.

Because she can’t get enough of nonprofits and entrepreneurship for good, Kivi serves as the treasurer of the Davidson County Local Food Network and the Lexington Book Festival. She also runs a micro-bakery called Rabble & Rise Baking Co. where she bakes up fresh sourdough boules and other goodies for customers at the Lexington Farmers Market.

After attending college in the San Francisco Bay Area and a few years working in Washington, DC, Kivi moved to rural North Carolina where she has lived for the last twenty+ years with her husband, two daughters now away at college, five rescue cats, including a tripawd, and one very busy rescue puppy. She enjoys year-round gardening, baking, vegetarian cooking, pickleball, hiking, and kayaking.

Kristina Leroux is the COO at Nonprofit Marketing Guide where she helps nonprofit communicators find what they need to do their job better. She runs the All-Access Pass program, manages and contributes to the webinar and workshop series, manages the Nonprofit Marketing Guide Community, and runs the Nonprofit Marketing Guide blog to which she frequently writes including the popular #NPCOMMLIFE feature. If you have a question about anything at Nonprofit Marketing Guide, she’s your person!

Prior to coming on as a partner at Nonprofit Marketing Guide, she was a successful virtual assistant and worked with clients in the nonprofit sector like Network for Good and CharityHowTo moderating webinars, creating content, managing memberships programs, and more.

She is a very active lazy person who enjoys working out and playing tennis and pickleball as well as binge-watching television shows and movies while eating really bad snacks. Kristina lives in Auburn, Alabama with her husband, three kids, two bonus kids, and three rescue dogs.

Anysa Holder has spent nearly two decades working across nonprofits, healthcare, and finance, but the social impact sector is where she has always belonged. She currently serves in a senior leadership role at a national nonprofit while also consulting for organizations looking to strengthen their marketing, fundraising, and advocacy efforts.

She co-chairs a national network of fundraisers and serves on several advisory boards, including those focused on children’s mental health and university-level marketing education—both areas she is passionate about.

As a Senior Advisor with Nonprofit Marketing Guide, she brings that same passion to teaching and mentoring nonprofit professionals, helping them tell their stories more effectively and connect with the right audiences.

Anysa is a certified Project Management Professional (PMP), a pursuit fueled by her commitment to helping mission-driven organizations move from ideas to action. Whether launching a campaign, restructuring a team, or executing a new strategy, she thrives on creating the structure and momentum needed to turn big visions into meaningful impact.

Outside of work, she enjoys discovering new hiking trails with her fur-child, Paulo, and hosting LRDPs (Living Room Dance Parties) with family and friends. She recently earned her boating license and hopes to one day partner with local organizations to introduce more people to the water—an experience that, like her work, is all about guiding people through new territory with confidence and direction.

Erin Malone is a Senior Advisor at Nonprofit Marketing Guide where she leads webinars, workshops, and community events.

With 20 years of experience in communications for nonprofits, unions, and foundations, Erin specializes in helping organizations transform their mission, vision, and aspirations into compelling stories that resonate with their audiences. Whether through message development, branding, content creation, media relations, or executive coaching, she works at the intersection of communications and organizational development to foster impactful change.

She is also passionate about empowering teams with the skills and confidence to communicate effectively.

Erin is currently based in Brooklyn, NY but hails from a tiny town in Southern Illinois. When not nerding out on the latest trends in communications strategy, you can find her in her garden, on the dance floor, or at her workbench cutting gems and alloying metals.

Kayla Hornbrook has been in the nonprofit sector for over a decade. She’s worked as a communications department-of-one for local organizations and as a member of large nationwide advocacy teams. Kayla currently provides fractional and project based consulting services for nonprofits, small businesses, and other mission-driven groups.

As a Senior Advisor with Nonprofit Marketing Guide, Kayla helps folks who have to figure out how to do it all with very few resources. She knows first-hand how “other duties as assigned” can sometimes be the entire job, and thrives on helping nonprofit marketing and communications staffers with clarity, guidance, or just a friendly listening ear. She believes in both the power of automations and integrations to end back-office busywork, and in the need for agile solutions for people in the direct service field.

Kayla lives with her family just outside of Washington, D.C. When not working or with her kids she enjoys playing video games, running tabletop games, planning out travel, and walking long distances to find good cups of coffee.

Faigy Gilder has more than 15 years of experience in nonprofit marcomms, working as an in-house professional at diverse organizations before launching her digital marketing consultancy in 2022. She offers project-based fractional marketing services to mission-driven leaders and organizations who are stretched-thin so they can stop spinning their wheels and start gaining momentum.

Her journey began with a journalism degree and AmeriCorps service, followed by earning her MPA from the NYU Wagner in Public and Nonprofit Management and Policy. Most recently, she served as Director of Communications at a specialized bar association, managing everything from large annual conferences to comprehensive strategic planning.

As a Senior Advisor at Nonprofit Marketing Guide, Faigy brings an insider’s understanding of the unique challenges facing nonprofit professionals. She knows firsthand what it’s like to juggle marketing, communications, and development responsibilities while trying to maximize impact with minimal resources. Her specialty lies in helping overwhelmed teams create sustainable systems that work within real-world constraints. From maximizing Google Ad Grants to implementing AI-powered content automation, she focuses on innovative solutions that help organizations do more with less.

When she’s not working, Faigy enjoys meeting friends for coffee, crafting with resin, going for walks, painting in oils, and reading fantasy novels. She lives in Bergen County, NJ, with her husband, Ari, and their three rambunctious children.
