We Welcome A New Generation of Board Members

This past month we at Calvert Foundation brought on two new members to our Board of Directors: Phil Kirshman, Chief Investment Officer, Cornerstone Capital Investment Management and Jaime Yordan, former Vice-Chairman of Citigroup. Earlier this year we also welcomed two additional members, Decker Rolph, an early-stage business and finance executive and investor, and Aron Betru, Managing Director of the Center for Financial Markets at the Milken Institute. This brings our board to a total of ten members.

“We’re thrilled to be welcoming a new generation of members to our board and the Calvert Foundation community. Phil, Jaime, Aron and Decker all join us with expertise in finance and a passion for social good. Bringing together longstanding and new members, our board is better poised to grow Calvert Foundation to the next level as leaders in the impact investing space.”

In this time two of board members have departed. Shari Berenbach, a former CEO of the Calvert Foundation and recent President and CEO of the U.S. Africa Development Foundation, tragically passed away earlier this year, a great loss to both Calvert Foundation and the greater impact investing community. Peggy Clark, one of the founding board members of Calvert Foundation, resigned as of September and is being honored as a Director Emerita. Peggy will continue to be a close friend and resource with her expertise and long-standing relationship with the organization.

“I applaud Calvert Foundation’s new generation of board members who join the organization at a pivotal and promising moment. I am honored to be among the dreamers who helped to establish the organization, and to have watched its powerful impact over the years on so many individuals and communities. I am delighted to be able to continue to support the Calvert Foundation as an emeritus board member.”
