Poorvaja Rajagopalan

Development Associate (She/Her)

I’m Poorvaja Rajagopalan, development associate at The 19th. As a nonprofit newsroom, The 19th relies on support from donors; along with the rest of the development team, I coordinate philanthropic fundraising, assist with donor stewardship, and write grant proposals and reports. My goal is to keep The 19th independent and accessible to all readers.

Before joining The 19th, I worked as a grant writer at an environmental nonprofit, helping individuals and communities find funding for flood mitigation projects. In my spare time, I’ve volunteered with organizations sending books to incarcerated people and creating and preserving historical archives. So far, I’ve lived in two countries and five cities.

My work is free to consume and free to republish because of contributions from readers like you. A donation of $19 goes a long way toward sustaining our nonprofit newsroom.
