Community Foundation announces Executive Director Transition
The Board of Trustees of the Community Foundation of the Northern Alleghenies is pleased to welcome new leadership. Tiffany Boschert is coming aboard as the new Executive Director, while we wish all the best to Paula Fritz Eddy, current Executive Director, who will be retiring in the coming months. The Community Foundation of the Northern Alleghenies is the parent company of the Elk County Community Foundation and the McKean County Community Foundation.
Tiffany comes to the Executive Director position with a strong background in philanthropy, leadership, management, and community development. As the past Director of Development at Catholic Charities Counseling and Adoption Services, Erie, PA, Tiffany brings with her a wealth of experience in donor relations, grant writing, and budget management, along with a passion for positive change within our communities. Her professional expertise includes Family Development Specialist at The Guidance Center, Pregnancy and Parenting Counselor at Catholic Charities Counseling and Adoption Services, and Executive Director at the Boys & Girls Club of St. Marys.
The board initiated a comprehensive search process to find an individual with the experience, dedication, and vision to effectively manage and grow the Community Foundation well into the future. “Our Board of Trustees is thrilled to introduce a leader of Tiffany’s caliber into our community to guide our Community Foundation,” said parent Board President, Jim Evans. “It was evident to the committee almost immediately that Tiffany’s ability to perform at the highest level along with her experience in development and philanthropic leadership would align very well with the work of the Community Foundation.”
Evans continued, “I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Paula for her excellent leadership of the Community Foundation. She will be retiring after a tremendous 19-year career as Executive Director. She has grown the Foundation to great heights and leaves us well positioned for success into the future.”
Tiffany stated, “This commitment perfectly mirrors my own passion for philanthropy and community betterment. I am enthusiastic about the prospect of leading the Elk and McKean County Community Foundation to new heights of community impact.”
Paula Fritz Eddy added, “I could not be happier to welcome Tiffany as the new Executive Director. She is well suited to lead our well-loved organization that consists of an extremely talented team and a long history of dedicated donors and nonprofit partners. She will continue to build on the Foundation’s achievements of the past 24 years and expand our impact in our communities.”
