Tod Monaghan

Tod Monaghan joined Covenant House in September 2000 as an assistant to Sr. Mary Rose McGeady, then president and CEO of Covenant House International (CHI). Inspired by the work of direct care that he witnessed at Covenant House New York (CHNY), Tod attended Fordham University, earned a master’s in social work, and became a licensed master's social worker (LMSW). He spent the next six years at CHNY providing direct care to minors, young moms and babies, and young people struggling with substance use. He then turned to fundraise and spent two years writing foundation and government grants to support the full spectrum of Covenant House programs.

In 2011, Tod became vice president of individual giving and corporate partnerships at CHI. He was part of the leadership team that created the major gifts and corporate partnerships programs and was involved in launching Covenant House’s Sleep Out movement.
