The first thing David Almonte lists on his bio is Eagle Scout, but his resume is a little deeper and getting more impressive by the minute.
He is the creator and co-founder of FountainHead RI— an organization built on the idea based on “giving back, promoting growth benefiting RI, and providing leadership opportunities to both the generation before, as well as the generations to follow.”
By day, Almonte is a CPA at DiSanto Priest & Co.
Almonte recruited a few friends and colleagues like Jason Dodier (Co-Founder) and Nick Denice (Co-Founder) in order to build a network of “rising stars in different industries” from RI, CT, MA and Washington, DC.
Then, they expanded and tapped Rhode Island finance leader Matt Hassett and dozens of others. Combined their efforts have led to fundraisers and other community efforts to improve and enhance Rhode Island.
Ultimately, FountainHead RI was built from the ground up, with the “mission to provide a platform for millennial engagement in Rhode Island in order to foster professional development, connect the next generation of leaders, and promote leadership in various sectors both locally and nationally.”
Almonte is building an initiative that helped change RI for the better in 2018 and well beyond.
