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 foundation's mission is to work with people and communities to create enduring solutions for just societies and a healthy, resilient natural world. Through a recent strategic planning process, the foundation identified three overarching, interdependent goals to guide the Foundation's work: Protect and Restore Our Natural World, Invest in Families and Communities, and Build Just Societies.

About the Global Reproductive Health Initiative

The Global RH initiative aims to ensure that people, particularly those in East and francophone West Africa, have access to comprehensive reproductive health care and policies that recognize and address needs, inequalities, and challenges specific to women and girls. Building on previous country-based work, the initiative will be shifting investments to the regional level where governmental bodies and non-governmental organizations can promote progress in multiple countries simultaneously. Key investments will support innovative ways of delivering care, advocacy for best practices, expanding access to a greater range of quality products and services, and amplifying the voices of the youth, feminist, and public health advocates who are deeply connected to local issues and contexts.

The Global RH Initiative sits within the Packard Foundation's goal to 'Build Just Societies', which are key to supporting families and communities and protecting our natural world.

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 four other fellows at the Foundation working on environment & science, families and communities, civil society, and leadership, and U.S. democracy, rights and governance. There will be quarterly activities for the cohort of fellows.
