Jess Stokely

Jess comes to the Community Foundation of Boone County with a background in all things nonprofit, including a range of experiences from human services, to arts, to education and conservation. She served as Director as Connect Boone County and is now excited to serve in a new role on the Board of Directors. With deep roots in Boone County, she brings her extensive know-how of connecting individuals and communities to grow resources. Jess loves that the Foundation is here to unite and make the wishes of donors and nonprofits come true.  

When Jess is not volunteering her time you can find her with her husband Alex, attending one of her two children’s many sporting events, traveling, or peacefully tending her garden. She has personally experienced the disconnect between willing donors and the nonprofits in need and is excited to be of service to CFBC to help bridge this gap in a meaningful way.
