Christopher R. Percopo

Grants Manager

Christopher Percopo is the Grants Manager at The Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust in New York City.  In this role, Chris’s primary responsibility is the overall compliance of the organization’s grant portfolio, the development of necessary policies and procedures, the management of the Trust’s online grant process, and the maintenance and installation of its grants database. 

Prior to joining the Trust, Chris held fundraising positions at various non-profit organizations, including Director of Institutional Giving and Director of Major Gifts.  Chris is passionate about measuring the impact that social service agencies have on the inequities they are designed to combat.  This has led him to work extensively on outcomes measurement and logic model development to help organizations better define the key performance indicators (KPI’s) they are tracking as well as their desired outcomes. 

Chris graduated from The George Washington University with a BA in Human Services (Non-Profit Management) and frequently volunteers with local non-profits.  Outside of work Chris enjoys skiing, traveling, and cooking for family and friends.
