This collaborative approach ensured that the selection criteria reflected the organization’s mission and aspirations. Following this groundwork, Benefactor Group utilized its extensive network to identify top-tier candidates who demonstrated a strong background in housing policy, nonprofit leadership, and advocacy.
The result of this thorough and strategic search was the successful placement of a highly qualified leader who brought a wealth of experience and a deep understanding of the affordable housing sector.
