Departmental Overview

About the David and Lucile Packard Foundation

The David and Lucile Packard Foundation is where the Program Analyst will work. The Packard Foundation was established in 1964. David and Lucile Packard believed that along with universities, national institutions, community groups, youth agencies, family planning centers, and hospitals, foundations constitute a great American tradition that complements government efforts to focus on society's needs. The mission of the Foundation is to work with people and communities to create enduring solutions for just societies and a healthy, resilient natural world. Its vision is a just and equitable world where both people and nature flourish.

The Foundation is in the process of framing its new strategic plan. The plan will identify new approaches to how it does its work, examine stronger connections across the issues it funds, and explore new areas of grantmaking that may bring faster, positive change for a more just and equitable world. As the Foundation moves forward to reimagine its future, it is embracing this once-in-a-generation opportunity for transformational, positive change while building on the important work of its partners.

About the Families and Communities team

The Families and Communities team is developing two initiatives: the California Initiative focuses on ensuring that California communities are resilient, able to respond to and withstand ongoing change and adversity, and equipped to ensure that all residents-children, youth, families, and adults-are able to thrive; the Child and Family Initiative focuses on creating an equitable and sustainable two- generation system of quality care and support from prenatal to age three.

About the Partnership

The UC Berkeley-Haas School of Business -- through the Center for Social Sector Leadership -- offers this unique fellowship in philanthropy at the David and Lucile Packard Foundation to provide next generation leaders the opportunity to engage with philanthropic and nonprofit leaders and work with a grantmaking team serving diverse issues and populations.

The vision for this partnership is to strengthen the future of philanthropy and civil society by providing recent graduates from diverse disciplines and backgrounds a professional-level introduction to philanthropy and the nonprofit sector. The goals of the fellowship are to 1) introduce recent graduates to philanthropy and the role of nonprofits to strengthen their impact in a future career and 2) introduce the Foundation to fresh ideas, new skills, and diverse perspectives. The fellow will join a cohort of six other fellows at the Foundation working on initiatives on the oceans, conservation and science, reproductive health, and organizational effectiveness. There will be quarterly activities for the cohort of fellows.

This position will directly support the Vice President of the Families and Communities team. The Vice President will also deploy the Program Analyst to work on diverse projects within the team.

While placed at the Packard Foundation and receiving direction from the Vice President, the fellow will also enjoy full support from UC Berkeley-Haas School of Business' Founder and Faculty Director of the Center for Social Sector Leadership. The Berkeley supervisor will provide context for the foundation world, access to resources for fellowship success, and personal coaching and supervision for the fellow. Since the purpose of the fellowship is to develop leaders, the fellowship also includes a professional development budget for the fellow to participate in relevant conferences, attend workshops and classes, receive professional career coaching, and develop specific skills and knowledge particular to the fellow's next career goal.
