Vanessa Calixto looks of an age that’s between Millennial and Gen Z, and as it’s not good manners to ask a woman for her age, I did not. Besides, I was more interested in finding out what it means for her to work for Philippine Red Cross as a fund generator.
To my ears, “fund generator” must be a tougher job than fund raiser, for just when I was about to ask her more questions, people around the table were talking to her at the same time. See what the sound of those two words can do? To my mind, when a fund generator generates funds, those funds keep generating more funds, in contrast to a fund raiser who, once the funds are raised, may consider the work done.
