Brett Curtis

Brett leads Special Events and Community Fundraising efforts supporting those who give time, talent, or treasure to Active Minds’ mission and work. He is excited to work with advocates across the country as we collectively continue to change the conversation around mental health. Before joining Active Minds, Brett has supported local and national nonprofit organizations in their peer-to-peer, DIY, special event, and endurance fundraising efforts for missions he is equally as passionate about in the hunger, housing, and chronic illness spaces.

Born and raised in Miami, Florida, Brett has lived in Washington, DC for the last five years. You can either find him trying a new local restaurant on the foodie scene, enjoying a local sporting event (as he tries to get to every MLB ballpark), or booking discounted travel somewhere as far from the DMV as possible.  He is an avid University of Virginia fan (#wahoowa) having earned both a Master of Public Policy and a B.S. Ed in Youth and Social Innovation at UVA.
