April Carter, Director of Capacity Building for Momentum Nonprofit Partners, loves her city, her community, and the people that make up both. A long time Memphian, April has worked in the nonprofit sector for nearly 20 years. Her passion for a better Memphis has lead her on a journey that started with volunteering in high school at various organizations, to leading youth groups in neighborhoods that hold stories of her childhood, to serving in an organization that provides resources to hundreds of hard-working nonprofit professionals every day. April recently graduated from the inaugural LeadingUp Cohort, a partnership initiative with Momentum Nonprofit Partners and CBU’s Institute for Leadership Development. Her life’s motto is inspired by the great Dr. Seuss: “Unless someone like you cares a whole awfullot. Nothing is going to get better. It’s not.”
