After more than 12 years in progressive fundraising leadership within higher education, Scott Koskoski joined Morris Animal Foundation as Director of Major & Planned Giving in December 2012.
 
Scott arrives at the Foundation following successful stints in athletics development leadership roles at the University of Denver, Temple University, University of Tennessee system, James Madison University and Washington & Jefferson College. Along the way, he has led or assisted with divisional fundraising efforts that supported four unique capital campaigns in range from $93 million to $1 billion. Scott has presented at numerous industry conferences and seminars on donor-centric, best-practices for major and planned gift fundraising and at the University of Denver, paired with University Advancement on the creation of a blended gifts approach. His transition to Morris Animal Foundation allows him to broaden his development expertise while supporting the Foundation’s critical mission of research benefiting animals, which have been a part of Scott’s life since childhood.

A western Pennsylvania native, Scott relocated to Denver from Pittsburgh. He is a graduate of both Mercyhurst University and Robert Morris University. He is best known, however, as husband to Melissa and father of four little monkeys, Ben (5), twins Tyler and Olivia (2), Jack (newborn) and their family collie-lab Peeta.
