The Activate Good Team

Staff and Consultants

Amber Smith
Executive Director
Activating Good since 2005
Amber@ActivateGood.org

Amber has lived in North Carolina for the majority of her life and is currently a resident of Raleigh. Amber founded Activate Good in 2005 (then known as ME3) when she noticed that people seemed to want to get involved to help the community but were not sure how to get started, and that many causes could benefit from the help of more volunteers. Before Activate Good she volunteered with organizations such as Kiwanis, Hope for the Homeless, and Amnesty International. She completed a Masters in Public Administration and Nonprofit Management at N.C. State University where she also advised undergraduates in the Nonprofit Studies Minor. Amber hopes all individuals will see the potential they have to make a difference, and act to fulfill that potential.

Krystal Hare
Human Resources
& Operations Manager
Activating Good since 2016
Krystal@ActivateGood.org

Originally from Pennsylvania, Krystal earned her B.A. in Communications, and a Public and Professional Writing Certificate focusing on nonprofits and small business – both from the University of Pittsburgh. Growing up, she had ties to North Carolina, but finally made the move to the coast when she and her now-husband joined forces and moved to Swansboro (Onslow County) in 2013. Together they moved to Raleigh in 2015, where Krystal serendipitously connected with Activate Good through the YNPN’s Triangle chapter and AmeriCorps. She formally joined the team full-time at the end of her AmeriCorps contract in 2016 – bringing experience in marketing and public relations, publishing, and higher education administration. Since then, she’s cycled through the organization as Youth Programs Coordinator, Corporate Engagement Manager and supporting other team needs as they come up. Krystal has now shifted her experience and knowledge of the organization to focus on team strategy, engagement and management – developing Activate Good’s human resources function and continuing the team’s growth. She’s a natural organizer and logistics wiz, loves developing new things and working hard to perfect them. She has a talent for finding what makes each person unique, targeting how they may best contribute, and uncovering how to support their unique personal and professional needs. Krystal also serves on the Hillel Preschool Board of Directors. When not working, Krystal can usually be found with her husband and daughter adventuring to new places and outdoor spaces, finding the best toddler playgrounds, cooking and baking.

Lee Pike
Fund Development Manager
Activating Good since 2020
Lee@ActivateGood.org

Originally from Raleigh, NC, Lee attended East Carolina University where she earned her BA in Psychology with a minor in dance, the latter motivating her to relocate to Chicago shortly after graduation. In addition to modern dance performance and teaching, she found work in the world of independent and custom publishing. Somewhere within those strangely overlapping spheres, she discovered—and fell in love with—Chicago’s burgeoning coffee industry. Soon she embarked on her own coffee career. Then, when she and her spouse decided they could not weather another midwestern winter, they moved back to Raleigh, and Lee joined Larry’s Coffee, where she took a special interest in expanding the brand’s nonprofit-benefitting Coffees For a Cause collection. She received her Non-Profit Management Graduate Certificate from NC State University in 2021, and served on the board for the International Women’s Coffee Alliance and the NC Specialty Food Association. She also co-founded the Raleigh Chapter of The Handsome Ladies, a 501(c)3 supporting women in bluegrass and participates in monthly bluegrass jams (while attempting to sing as little as possible). Lee also enjoys practicing yoga, and she still dances.

Rose Thompson
Senior Programs Manager
Activating Good since 2013
Rose@ActivateGood.org

After making many moves in the U.S., Rose, her husband and three children have planted roots (literally & figuratively) near Raleigh, NC since 2008. During her extensive career in the nonprofit sector, she has directed programs for a Volunteer Center in Wisconsin, managed a New York state program called TeenAge Services Act, provided case management to at-risk youth, managed programs for Big Brothers Big Sisters of South Georgia, and directed camps for youth served by the YMCA in Asheville, NC. Rose also taught Communications and English in Greenville, South Carolina after she earned her degree from Clemson University in 2000 (she bleeds orange). Since 2013 she has dedicated her combined work experience, education and talents to the roles of Volunteer Coordinator, Volunteer Programs Manager and Senior Programs Manager with Activate Good. Rose also serves on the Points of Light Global Network Programs Affiliate Assembly Subcommittee. She enjoys connecting volunteers to serve the hundreds of worthy nonprofits and schools in need that are partnered with Activate Good and feels fortunate to get to connect with so many kind, like-minded, yet diverse people that help communities across the Triangle via Activate Good and is inspired by their do-goodery. When not working you’ll likely find her driving her kids to various extracurriculars and cheering for them, photographing and playing with the ever zany family pets, cooking up a storm, writing, concert going, and traveling whenever she gets the chance as she loves adventures.

Natalie Chevalier
Civic & Volunteer
Programs Manager
Activating Good since 2017
Natalie@ActivateGood.org

Natalie grew up in Raleigh and lived in the gorgeous Blue Ridge mountains for several years while earning her BA in International Studies from UNC-Asheville and MPA from Western Carolina. She moved back to town in the summer of 2017 with one fantastic partner, two trouble-making cats, and probably “too many” books. Natalie has worked on projects with organizations dedicated to a wide range of causes, such as connecting marginalized communities to sustainable career pathways, building cyber education programs in Haiti and rural Guatemala, empowering young social entrepreneurs, and facilitating racial equity workshops. Since joining the team, she has held roles focused on fund development, event planning, operational & financial management, and volunteer engagement. When not working, Natalie is likely to be cooking or crafting something inspired by Pinterest, rewatching The Office for the 300th time, making her way through her endless “to be read” list, or yelling at her cat to get off the counter.

Jennifer (Jenn) Von Egidy
Marketing Manager

Activating Good since 2022
Jenn@ActivateGood.org

Jenn grew up in the small town of Marshville, North Carolina (Union County), but fell in love with Blue Ridge Mountains while receiving her Bachelors of Social Work at Appalachian State University and living and working in Boone, NC. Jenn’s passion for Social Work developed at 18 when she was assigned to her Work Study position at the local homeless shelter, where she continued to work for the next 10 years. She obtained a Wake Forest University Certificate of Essentials of Business for Non-Profit Organizations in 2015. Jenn continued to work in and near homelessness and poverty issues in various roles in philanthropy, board of directors service, professional conference planning, and systems-level work with Continuums of Care. She currently serves on the Advisory Board of HOST, the planning committee for Pittsboro Pride, and supports her family’s business, Cataleya Jewelry Studio as Brand Strategist. You can find Jenn hanging out with her partner, 9-year old daughter, and their 2 dogs and cat. They enjoy going camping, hiking, creating art, and volunteering at festivals.
