The New America Foundation is pleased to announce the appointment of the first HAND Foundation Philanthropy Fellow, Dr. Lucy Bernholz. With the generous support of The HAND Foundation, based in Redwood City, Dr. Bernholz will analyze key trends in the philanthropy sector, with a focus on the reforms and regulations that will determine its future.
“The face of philanthropy has changed dramatically in the last several decades and will evolve more significantly in the coming years. As more and more people look to philanthropy to solve the biggest problems facing humanity today, a nuanced understanding of the philanthropic landscape, trends, and possibilities is needed,” said Noosheen Hashemi, President and Co-Founder of the HAND Foundation. “The HAND Foundation shares Lucy’s commitment to furthering scholarship on the social economy and is hopeful that this fellowship enables a deeper and wider public discourse.”
“Lucy is a keen observer of the philanthropy field and we are excited to embark on this new collaboration with the HAND Foundation,” said Leif Wellington Haase, Director of the California Program at the New America Foundation. “California is home to some of the largest philanthropic organizations in the country, as well as the most dynamic younger donors. We feel this is the perfect time to join the conversation in this area.”
