The Four Friends Foundation is a charitable family foundation that seeks to energize people and communities through creativity, storytelling and artistic expression. The foundation expects to award $2 million in 2025 to support organizations that create opportunities for young people from under-resourced communities through the arts. Through its 4Youth grant program, Four Friends helps transform visionary creative youth development organizations by providing them with the resources to tell their remarkable stories and mobilize their stakeholders and supporters. The foundation gives nationally, with a special focus on New York City, Los Angeles and Detroit.
The family foundation is led by a part-time Executive Director and is supported by a part-time Grants Manager and a consulting Strategic Advisor. The family office stewards investments and finances while providing back-office support and critical input on strategy.
The Four Friends Foundation seeks an exceptional Program Officer to serve as a strategic thought partner and provide administrative and operational support for all foundation activities. The Program Officer will report to the Executive Director and work collaboratively with team members to develop and execute grantmaking strategies while personally overseeing foundation grant cycles.
The Program Officer will join at an exciting moment of strategic possibility for Four Friends and will play a pivotal role in shaping its future. We seek a creative and entrepreneurial individual who is ready to enthusiastically join a small start-up team in a virtual office environment where everyone is expected to pitch in as needed.
