Welcome Mark Helmke to the South Region.

Please join me in welcoming Mark Helmke as a Regional Director on the South team.  Mark will be moving from Madison, WI and working with families in southeast Florida.  He and his wife, Sherri, have grown especially close to the University over the past four years as Notre Dame parents.  Their son, Alec, will be graduating this spring from the College of Arts and Letters.  Following graduation, Alec will spend a year doing service work in Honduras prior to attending pharmacy school.  In addition to Alec, they have two daughters.  Emily lives in Madison, and Olivia is a freshman at Viterbo University in Lacrosse, WI.

Mark has spent the past seven years serving his alma mater, University of Wisconsin-Eau Clair, as a fundraiser during their “Centennial Campaign.”  Mark was focused on cultivating gifts from families throughout the country for all university priorities such as financial aid, facilities and unrestricted.

Prior to starting his fundraising career, Mark spent thirteen years running his own company in Madison.  Dunham Express Corporation provided courier services and logistics to clients in healthcare and financial services.  Please welcome Mark to the team when you see him at Eddy Street and on campus.  Mark begins his new role on Monday, March 11, 2019.
