Centre Staff
Executive Director - Pamela Barit Nolan
Pamela Barit Nolan joined The Centre on Philanthropy as Executive Director in November 2005. Prior to joining The Centre Pam worked for over 20 years in the financial services sector. In 2003 Pam and her husband Gil left their jobs seeking more purpose and meaning for their lives. They traveled for over 18 months reconnecting with old friends and making many new ones. During this period Pam decided that she wanted to find a way to give back to the community in some significant way. Her search to achieve this goal led to The Centre and back home to Bermuda after 20 years.
Favourite Quote: "Once we acknowledge both the prospect of our own death and the promise that life holds, we gain our greatest power: the ability to use our lives to say something important, however small or large we may think it is. Our actions, our contributions, or just showing up in our own way, can send a message that means something to others and even to ourselves." Jim Lord, What Kind of World do you Want.
Office Manager - Deborah Lambert
Deborah Lambert joined The Centre in January 1997 as our Operations Manager. Prior to joining, she was employed at an exempt management company as a Network and Account Manager.
Since The Centre had been without a Manager for over a year, Deborah had the task of reorganizing the day to day operations - not a trivial challenge! Since then she has built an incredible amount of knowledge about charities in Bermuda and acts as our go to help desk. Her expertise and hard work have brought our operations up to date and her organizational ability keeps things running smoothly.
