We are absolutely THRILLED to share some wonderful news with you today!

Please join us in giving the warmest South Georgia welcome to our newest Board member, Janna W. Luke! 🌟

Janna brings an incredible wealth of experience and enthusiasm to our SGNN family.

As Development Officer for the Harley Langdale Jr. College of Business Administration at Valdosta State University, she's a true champion for nonprofit success. With over a decade of experience in nonprofit leadership and fundraising – including impressive roles with Second Harvest of South Georgia, United Way, and as President of the Valdosta Junior Service League – Janna knows firsthand the challenges and triumphs our members face every day.

Janna Luke joins the SGNN Board of Directors, bringing her expertise in nonprofit fundraising and community partnerships to South Georgia.

What makes Janna extra special? She's passionate about helping smaller nonprofits access the resources they need to thrive! As a Leadership Lowndes graduate and former Board of Trustees member, she's deeply connected to our South Georgia community. Plus, with her degrees in Marketing/Communications and Instructional Technology from VSU, she brings fresh perspectives on how we can better serve you.

When she's not busy making magic happen in the nonprofit world, you might find Janna behind a camera lens capturing life's beautiful moments (ask her about her photography!). She and her husband Don have been married for ten years and call South Georgia home.

Janna shared with us: "I'm honored to join the SGNN Board of Directors and look forward to supporting the organization's mission to empower nonprofits across South Georgia." We couldn't be more excited to have her!

This addition to our Board strengthens our commitment to providing you with the best resources, training, and networking opportunities possible. With leaders like Janna joining our ranks, the future of South Georgia nonprofits is brighter than ever!

Please join us in celebrating this fantastic news! If you see Janna at our next event, be sure to introduce yourself and give her that famous South Georgia hospitality!

Here's to growing stronger together! 🎊

With excitement and warm regards,

The SGNN Board of Directors

David Oaks, Jodie Snow, Eva Freeman, Kristoff Cohran, Laura Maxwell, Michael Smith, Rebecca Cannady. And our newest member, Janna Luke!

P.S. Mark your calendars for our next networking event Thursday, March 12, 2026, 8 a.m. to 1:30 where you'll have the chance to meet Janna in person!
