Heather McMullen

Heather McMullen became Finance Director for the Old Newsboys in November 2008. While concentrating most of her time on the business end of the organization Heather also plays a primary role in Program Management and in the procurement and tracking aspects of programs. A laid-back hockey mom, Heather loves all things sports, travel, and autumn in Michigan. Heather loves being a part of the Old Newsboys team because, she says, it makes her heart smile.

The newest addition to the Old Newsboys staff is Linda Campbell. A University of Michigan-Flint Alumni, Linda serves as the Director of Funding Development. As well as her fundraising duties, she shares program oversight and administrative duties with Heather McMullen.
