JOB OPENINGS AT ASTRAEA
Dear Colleagues and Friends,

Astraea has two staff positions open, and we're hoping that you can help spread the word.

Many of you know that Joo-Hyun Kang, Astraea's Director of Programs for the past four years, is leaving Astraea and moving on to new challenges at the end of October. Joo-Hyun helped build a wonderful, skilled and strong grants team—a team which is now expanding to five with the position of Associate Director of Grantmaking. This brand new position will enable Astraea to increase—even more—our efforts at grantmaking both within the U.S. and the Global South and East.

Please feel free to forward the job descriptions for Director of Programs and Associate Director of Grantmaking far and wide.

As always, thanks for your help Funding Change and Strengthening Communities around the World!

Tata Traore Rogers
