Tera Albrecht to be Donor Services Officer

January 20, 2026  /  Liz Conway

The Mt. Pleasant Area Community Foundation has named Tera Albrecht as its new Donor Services Officer. In this role, Albrecht will work with donors and prospective donors, support fundraising and stewardship, and help build relationships that support the Foundation’s mission.

With experience in higher education, donor relations, and customer service, Albrecht brings strong organizational skills, a collaborative spirit, and a passion for people. She previously supported Foundation operations and donor records, and now focuses on serving the Foundation’s donors and fundholders.

“Tera is a natural relationship-builder,” said Liz Conway, CEO/COO of the Mt. Pleasant Area Community Foundation. “She is thoughtful, dependable, and deeply committed to this community. Her ability to connect with people and manage details with care makes her an excellent fit for this role, and we’re excited to see her grow our donor services work.”

Originally from Sandusky, Michigan, Albrecht has established deep roots in Isabella County. After earning her undergraduate degree from Central Michigan University, she built a career at CMU dedicated to supporting student-athletes and advancing academic success, including serving as Associate Athletic Director for Student-Athlete Services.

Albrecht’s commitment to philanthropy is also personal. Her family established the David W. and Judith A. Albrecht Family Scholarship Fund at the Sanilac County Community Foundation, supporting youth and education in honor of her parents. Locally, she serves as Youth and Family Ministry Coordinator at Faith Lutheran Church in Mt. Pleasant, where she works closely with Compass Point youth programming.
