Richmond, Va. — June 25, 2025 — We’re excited to announce that Michelle Shefter has joined Humanitru as our Vice President of Product to guide our next chapter of product innovation and growth.
Michelle brings a wealth of experience in nonprofit fundraising technology, spanning both SaaS companies and nonprofit organizations. Early in her career, she helped implement technology to support a number of the sector’s most impactful fundraising, marketing, and advocacy programs—work that aligned her with some of the most forward-thinking efforts in nonprofit tech.
Over the past 15 years, Michelle has held influential positions at Convio, Blackbaud, and NGP VAN/EveryAction. She has played a central role in the development of market-leading digital fundraising, advocacy, and planned giving tools, and has helped bring a next-generation fundraising CRM to market.

In her new role at Humanitru, Michelle will oversee product strategy, roadmap execution, and team development—all with a focus on building powerful, scalable tools that meet the evolving needs of today’s nonprofit professionals. She joins at a time of rapid growth for the company and will be a key leader in shaping how we continue to empower organizations through data-driven innovation.
