Wendy Abel

Wendy serves as vice president of TMF’s Grants Ministry. She is a dynamic leader in serving under-resourced communities and has deep expertise in the measurement of outcomes and transformational change. In addition to her results-driven nonprofit management experience, Wendy brings fundraising, grant writing, resource development, coalition building, and advocacy skills to her role. Her experience developing logic models, data collection and analysis to guide strategic direction and decisions will be instrumental in continuing TMF’s trajectory toward resourcing systemic change.

Wendy manages TMF’s grant-making ministry which in 2022 funded $2.1 million in grants to 124 churches and other nonprofits. Wendy comes to TMF from her most recent position as Outcomes Manager for CitySquare, a nonprofit organization in Dallas offering comprehensive social services that address four key areas related to the persistence of poverty: hunger, health, housing, and hope.

Wendy earned a Bachelor of Arts in Special Education from Bennett College in Greensboro, NC. In addition to CitySquare, she has worked with United Way, Salvation Army in Dallas, National Able Network, and the Jane Addams Hull House Association in Chicago.
