Jane Flanders earned her Bachelor of Arts in English from Truman State University and holds a Certificate in Polish Language Studies from John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin, Poland. With a passion for philanthropy and strategic giving, she works to connect generous donors with meaningful opportunities that advance CSCOE’s mission and create lasting change in Catholic education.
For Jane, the best part of her work is connecting with donors who share CSCOE’s mission. Every conversation is a chance to align generosity with impact—whether celebrating a transformational gift, sharing updates, or building new relationships. Seeing faith and philanthropy strengthen Catholic schools makes every day fulfilling.
Her TED Talk topic? “Gracious acceptance.” She believes that knowing what’s within our control is key to where we should focus our energy—letting go of what we can’t change while staying intentional about how we move forward.
