Ben Wyatt
Director of Philanthropy
Ben grew up in Richmond, Virginia, but has been a PNW resident since 2006.
His work has included philanthropy and development roles with NPR-affiliate KNKX 88.5, Corporate and Foundation Giving with Seattle-based restaurant group Portage Bay Cafe, as well as over 12 years consulting with public and private sector clients on ways to bridge the gap between fundraising and marketing.
Ben was a part of the KNKX development team tasked with raising over $7 million in six months to ensure the station's survival through the purchase of its license and independence. He has played major roles in philanthropic programs for organizations including KEXP, Seattle Sounders, Fonte Coffee, City People's Garden Store and many more. He is thrilled to be a part of the Community Homes team.
