Stefanie Charren, Office Administrator

Stefanie joined the Foundation in 2011. Prior to officially joining, Stefanie supported the Foundation’s work in several capacities: from grantee selection and administration to event coordination for the Foundation’s annual grantee convenings in 2010 and 2011. Before this, she was the Youth and Scholarship Program Coordinator at Habitat for Humanity East Bay; a three-year pilot scholarship and college-readiness program which helped children of Habitat homeowners prepare for, pay for, and stay in college.

Stefanie’s interests and subsequent work experiences are informed by a desire to cultivate human potential and creative expression. From writing the gossip column for the San Francisco International Film Festival, crewing on private yachts in Europe, teaching English and writing in Europe; to co-managing a domestic violence shelter, acting as the primary recruiter and contracted workforce manager for IBM, Northern California, or offering support to small businesses as an organizational development consultant – she brings a creative touch to effect meaningful change and support sustainable business practices. In her current role, she attributes her acumen in supporting organizational efficiencies to a broad and varied work history.

Stefanie earned her BA in American Studies and Women Studies from the University of California, Santa Cruz.
