Under the leadership of its President, Vivian Tseng, the Foundation is embarking on its next chapter as a small organization with a long legacy of providing a "big voice" of "wide influence and impact" for America's children. The Foundation has approximately $120 million in assets, an annual grants budget of $3.5 million, four full-time staff and a small corps of consultants and plans to grow to 7 full-time staff in the next year.

The VPFA will oversee four expert vendors that provide accounting, auditing, human resources, and information technology support and is the primary staff liaison to our investment advisor. The VPFA also supports the President in strategic planning and is the executive liaison to the Board of Director's Finance Committee and Audit Committee.
