Jamie Caperton - is a 25 year veteran of non-profit service. She started her professional career as a registered nurse and soon moved into management positions with several corporate leaders in the health care field. Her passion, though, was working with charities. She volunteered with Girls Scouts, Special Olympics and several others before making a career change to non-profit fund raising. She first started with the Austin Children’s Museum then moved to Texas Special Olympics as their State Fund Raising Director. Her best move came when she decided to take the challenge of founding and directing the Collin County Children’s Advocacy Center. She decided to retire after ten years as CEO of that organization, and now owns Charitable Treasures - a unique home furnishing, décor, gifts and accessories store where 5% of every purchase benefits charity.
