New Development at the Foodbank

Alisse Harris is the Foodbank of Santa Barbara County’s new chief development officer. A resident of the Santa Ynez Valley, with close ties to both the north and south ends of the county, Harris most recently spearheaded the public phase of Direct Relief’s $40 million capital campaign to build and launch a new warehouse in Goleta for the international humanitarian aid organization.

Prior to joining the Direct Relief campaign, which exceeded its goal, Harris spent eight years growing J&K Pool Construction while overseeing more than 200 installation and remodeling projects, serving six years as senior account executive at the San Francisco Chronicle, and locally at Rincon Broadcasting.
