AMANDA BROWN LIERMAN
Senior Director for Policy and Engagement, GoFundMe
Amanda Brown Lierman is the Senior Director for Policy and Engagement at GoFundMe, a community-powered fundraising platform committed to making it safe and easy for anyone to give and get help.
Her previous position was Executive Director of Supermajority, an organization aimed at training and organizing women across age, race and background to push for women’s equity. At the helm, Amanda has leveraged her experience as an organizer to build a coalition of women who harness their collective power for lasting change.
Amanda draws from her personal experiences in her commitment to building a multiracial coalition of women that can enact major political change. As a young woman, she understands the importance of bringing in the next generation of voters. As a Black woman, she grasps the power of intersectional allyship in the fight for both racial justice and gender equity. As a mother to three young girls, she knows what it means to be a working mom during the pandemic. With this unique perspective, Amanda is able to lift up many of the experiences and issues of young, black women and mothers across the country, from paid leave to the Black maternal health crisis.
Before her time at Supermajority, Amanda was the National Political Director for Rock the Vote, Executive Director of the White House’s National Women’s Business Council, Campaign Director at For Our Future, and Organizing Director for the Democratic National Committee during the 2018 midterms. She is a graduate of Dartmouth College and lives in Maryland with her husband, Kyle, and their three daughters.
