Maura Stine

Engagement Coordinator

Maura Stine joined the Children’s Institute team in August 2024 as the Engagement Coordinator. With a strong background in non-profit fundraising for youth-serving organizations, she looks forward to growing community support and make Oregon the best place to be a kid.

Before joining us, Maura served three years as Development Manager for the PACNW region of Playworks, a national organization dedicated to SEL through the power of play. She holds a BA and MS in Sport Management from Washington State University and Missouri Baptist University, respectively. Maura applied her education in Collegiate Athletics at Portland Community College for a decade, where she saw the results of inequities in educational pathways and shifted her focus to youth education organizations.

Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with her two kids, husband, and friends. She loves exploring new parts of Oregon through hiking, kayaking, and biking, and during the colder months, she enjoys watching college basketball, playing board games, and working on jigsaw puzzles.
