ED of Newark Local Education Fund

Friends and Colleagues:

I am pleased to announce that Collaborative is working with the board
of directors in Newark to search for an Executive Director to lead the
newly established Newark Local Education Fund (LEF). This is an
exciting opportunity for a highly talented individual to help mobilize
financial, organizational and human resources to improve the
educational outcomes for all students in Newark, New Jersey and, in
turn, enhance their future and the viability of the community as a
whole.

The Newark LEF is a network of individuals and organizations dedicated
to supporting quality public schools for all families in Newark. It is
a partnership of funders in education, advocates for good schools,
community leaders and educators, all working with a coordinated
purpose to support effective programs and policies that make a real
difference in children’s educational experiences.

This position requires an individual with extraordinary leadership
acumen, extensive experience in urban education, management expertise
and the desire to champion a community-wide vision for high quality
education for all children.

I invite you share the attached job listing and position profile with
your networks or if you prefer, you may refer any candidates directly
to me that you believe would be well suited for this position. We have
set up a website (www.newarklef.org) with these application materials
and additional information about the Newark LEF. For referrals, or if
you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me or
newarklef@collaborativecommunications.com.

Thank you for your assistance.

Sincerely,
David Moore
