As an extension of Environment Day during the Flagship Program, we will continue the environmental conversation: 

Hope and Resilience for the Chesapeake Bay

 led by Kate Fritz, CEO, Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay.

About Kate Fritz:

Kate Fritz has lived in 5 of the 7 Chesapeake Bay watershed jurisdictions, and now calls Annapolis, MD her home. Kate currently serves as the CEO of the Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay, a regional nonprofit that has been bringing together communities, companies, and conservationists to restore the lands and waters of the Chesapeake Bay watershed for the last 50 years. Kate believes in the power of collaboration and inclusivity, and currently volunteers with many groups in the community, including the Anne Arundel County Women’s Giving Circle and the St. Mary’s College of Maryland Alumni Association. With more than 17 years of leadership experience, Kate believes that the greatest thing she can do as a leader is to support and grow more leaders.
