The only constant is change…yes?
If the world has taught us nothing else in these last 18 months, it’s that we need to be able to manage constant, and often unexpected, change. Here at The Collins Foundation, it’s no exception! Our dear CEO, Cynthia Addams stepped down in April. Our new CEO Carol Cheney is still getting her feet wet. Now we have two more changes to announce.
The Collins Foundation Announces New CEO
We are pleased to announce that we have hired a new CEO, Carol Cheney.
Carol is currently the diversity, equity, and inclusion manager at Meyer Memorial Trust, where she leads the foundation’s equity work and elevates DEI within Meyer’s organizational strategy.
We chose Carol because of her deep roots in Oregon and her extensive equity work throughout her career. She’s an inclusive collaborator who knows how to bring people together to achieve common goals.
Standing Against Hate
We are sickened by the Anti-Asian violence, aggression, and intimidation that has escalated in our country over the past year, recently claiming the lives of eight people in Atlanta, Georgia, six of them Asian American women. Our hearts ache for the families, friends, neighbors, and communities of Daoyou Feng, Delaina Ashley Yaun, Hyun Jung Grant, Paul Andre Michels, Soon Chung Park, Suncha Kim, Xiaojie Tan, and Yong Ae Yue. We cannot be silent.
Black Lives Matter
We at The Collins Foundation are devastated by the callous murder of George Floyd. We also call to mind Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, Stephon Clark, Tanisha Anderson, Philando Castile, Tamir Rice, and countless others who have been killed at the hands of the police and others in the recent past and throughout our country’s history. We deeply oppose the systemic racism that pervades Oregon and our country at large.
