Who We Are: SSDS and Its Staff

Beth A. Daly, B.A., M.A.

Ms. Daly has worked with SSDS in a variety of senior management positions since 1995. Her role has been a critical one, particularly in the coordination of international activities and the development of human resources management policies. Her own substantive interests are in the operation of social enterprises, ranging from grassroots associations and non-profits in developing countries to charitable foundations in the United States. Beginning with an orphanage in Mexico that she continued to support through fund-raising efforts for years after handing over managerial responsibility to Mexican staff, Ms. Daly has devoted much of her efforts to establishing and operating social enterprises targeted at disadvantaged children. She has also developed a series of books to teach children with disabilities, parents and professionals how to integrate assistive technology into daily activities in an enjoyable and creative way. She serves as Trustee of a New York-based charitable foundation, and has oversight responsibility for grant programs supporting disadvantaged children in inner cities.

Ms. Daly has helped a variety of non-profit organizations with their development and fund raising. Before joining SSDS, she was responsible for fund-raising for World Education, an American private voluntary organization based in Boston with worldwide programs. In Cambodia, she assisted two local organizations to expand and diversify their sources of funding, and she has taught in a program on resource diversification for other indigenous non-governmental organizations based in Africa. Ms. Daly is one of the principal authors of the Guide to Leveraging: How to Mobilize and Diversify Resources for Reproductive Health. Her bachelor's degree in International Relations is from Colgate University and she has a master's degree in Higher Education Administration from Boston College.
