44. Ford Foundation - Program Associates
The Ford Foundation Program Associates is a two-year, entry-level, professional opportunity for individuals with masters or law degrees to introduce a diverse group of potential leaders to the field of philanthropy early in their careers in the not-for-profit sector. Ideal candidates will have some experience in the not-for-profit sector. Individuals with extensive experience in the not-for-profit sector, however, are not eligible for the program. Applications are invited from individuals interested in pursuing careers in the following areas: community and resource development; economic development; human development and reproductive health; governance and civil society; human rights and international cooperation; education, knowledge and religion; and media, arts and culture.
This is a full-time, non-career track, paid position at the Ford Foundation's New York headquarters. Program Associates will receive an annual salary of $41,000 plus medical and dental insurance, vacation and sick leave, and a savings plan. In addition, the Foundation will cover the cost of travel to New York City at the beginning of the program, as well as basic relocation costs. It is estimated that 16-20 individuals will be selected to work directly with Foundation grantmaking staff on a variety of tasks and projects. Applicants must be eligible to work in the U.S. and must have received a masters or law degree by August 2000. Program Associates are appointed for one year, renewable for a second year on the basis of satisfactory performance.
The deadline for electronic submission of the application or postmarked paper application is midnight (Pacific Standard Time) JANUARY 15, 2000.
