NCRP Invites Three Leaders to Advance a More Accountable Philanthropy
Daniel Altschuler, Fatima Angeles, and Yordanos Eyoel bring their personal and professional experience at a crucial time for philanthropy
WASHINGTON, DC — The National Committee for Responsive Philanthropy (NCRP) begins another fiscal year by welcoming three new members to its board. The organization, with almost 50 years of philanthropic accountability and organizing, announced this week that Daniel Altschuler, Fatima Angeles, and Yordanos Eyoel will join the board on October 1. The additions strengthen NCRP’s mission to transform the philanthropic sector to better serve communities most impacted by injustice.
“NCRP’s board brings broad strategic influence and deep understanding of the movements and communities that the sector should resource,” said Dr. Dwayne Proctor, NCRP Board Chair. “In this urgent moment, when so many funders are looking for meaningful guidance, we are fortunate to have a wealth of leadership.”
In addition to the introduction of new members, NCRP President & CEO Aaron Dorfman expressed appreciation for Molly Schultz Hafid, who will conclude her board service after 10 years on the board, including the last four years as Treasurer.
“Molly was such an amazing thought partner to me for the past decade,” said Dorfman. “I greatly valued her perspectives on organizational strategy and finances.”
