After over six months of research, reCREATE was founded in February, 2008, by Donna Sangwin.    

So just who is this Donna?

I am the mother of two small children and have been married for 13 years.

I am a person that believes if people follow their passion the rest will fall into place... of course having a background that includes skills that translate into making your dream a reality help!

My passion for the environment is strong.

 

I want to help Roseville and the Sacramento region be an even more vibrant and green-thinking area.

 

I believe that all people should have access to the arts, and that affordable programs like reCREATE are an excellent way to have the community work together. 

Prior to starting reCREATE, I held positions with American City Business Journals and Capital Public Radio.  

I began my career in media in Austin, Texas, with the Austin Business Journal, as Director of Advertising.  After a  increasing advertising sales by 84%,  I was given the opportunity to come back to California, to head up the advertising department of the San Francisco Business Times.  Again, our sales soared, with an increase of over a million dollars in the first year I managed the team.  In 2000, I was selected to be a National Sales Manager for the West Coast, representing all 70 Business Journals, and managing key accounts such as Microsoft,  Verizon Wireless and Washington Mutual. 

As Capital Public Radio, I worked with local and national businesses to help them leverage the powerful audience of listeners, while securing monetary support for the public radio station.   I secured a significant grant from California Healthcare Foundation that led the launch of the Healthcare Report.

Why am I doing this?  Simply, for my kids.   We don't have the luxury of time to continue down the current path of waste and I don't want to look back at them and apologize.  I want to to be able to say I was working to make a change."

I drive a hybrid car, drink water from my tap, and try to find ways to reduce my carbon footprint.
