Appointed to New World Foundation Board

I have been working with the New World Foundation as a consultant to the finance committee on the investment portfolio.  I have now been appointed to  Board of Directors.  My term begins in December and runs three years.  The New World Foundation’s grant making supports organizations working to strengthen civil rights and the active participation of citizens in American democracy.  The board is unlike many foundations in that it is mostly made up of grantees or others actively involved in doing the work of expanding civil rights and participation in democracy.  I will be a rare non-practitioner on the board; though I hope I can bring a financial expertise that will complement the wide range of expertise already on the board.  I look forward to learning from and working with Colin Greer and the rest of the board and staff at New World.
