MISSION AND ORGANIZATIONAL BACKGROUND
Margaret A. Cargill Philanthropies refers collectively to two grantmaking entities, Margaret A. Cargill Foundation (MACF) and Anne Ray Foundation (ARF). The two foundations have separate, but overlapping boards and investment portfolios and share a common mission of providing meaningful assistance and support to society, the arts, and the environment.

• Margaret A. Cargill Foundation is a private foundation that came into existence upon Ms. Cargill’s death in August 2006. MACF’s assets are approximately $3.5 billion.
• Anne Ray Foundation is a supporting organization, which may make grants only to beneficiary organizations specifically named by Ms. Cargill. ARF’s assets are approximately $5 billion.

MACP’s well-developed Philosophy of Grantmaking underscores the values and guiding principles of Margaret A. Cargill by: using education and innovation as a means to achieve core purposes; empowering people to be self-sufficient; maintaining a low profile while meeting the needs of others; supporting programs that could have a broad impact, have socially redeeming values and standards, and that value life; and relieving suffering in times of disaster. As a core element of its philosophy, MACP invests in long-term relationships with key grantee organizations in order to find solutions that are consistent with the values of both parties toward a goal of lasting community level impact. This is further reenforced in the MACP 2025 Strategic Vision and Goals, which is organized into three key goals:

• We are demonstrating lasting community impact and learning with our partners and from our program strategies.
• We are developing and utilizing diverse talents and knowledge.
• We have systems, processes, and practices that effectively support our collective work.

MACP began its formal diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice (DEIJ) journey with efforts to deepen learning, better understand core concepts, and develop intercultural competence. More recently, multiple crises have resulted in a sense of urgency around longstanding and systemic issues of racism and inequity, accelerating MACP’s work on these issues across its organization. To advance this work, MACP developed, revised, and adopted its Vision Statement in December 2021 to provide a framework to guide its shared efforts. MACP’s DEIJ work is owned by everyone at MACP, and all are part of a shared journey to be effective in our work and achieve the impact we seek.

The William Penn Foundation
Director, Creative Communities Program
Philadelphia, PA

The William Penn Foundation, a nationally recognized $3.5 billion family foundation based in Philadelphia, seeks a Director of its Creative Communities Program. With approximately $30 million in annual grantmaking, the Creative Communities Program supports organizations and projects that work to ensure people and communities across Greater Philadelphia have the opportunity to benefit from inclusive, diverse, and high-quality public spaces and arts and culture experiences.

The Director reports to the Foundation’s Executive Director and oversees a lean program staff of five in pursuit of the following core strategies: Arts and Culture Hubs provides unrestricted general operating support to organizations whose missions are rooted in arts and culture and seek to achieve greater racial and economic equity in their operations and programming; Arts Education and Exposure funds in-school partnerships, for grades K-6, and community-based arts training in grades 7-12; Arts Presentation and Art Making funds high-quality arts and culture projects or programs that emphasize diverse and culturally relevant work produced in an inclusive and equitable way; Public Space Creation and Stewardship supports the creation and stewardship of high-quality, inclusive, sustainable public and community spaces; and Equitable Economic Impacts funds investments to enable public and community spaces to generate long-term, equitable economic benefits for neighborhoods throughout Philadelphia and the region.

This important role calls for a seasoned strategic thinker and a results-oriented team leader with values alignment and commitment to the Foundation’s work. Strong communication, thought leadership, and the ability to cultivate and support a thriving team are required, as is a deep, proven commitment to values of equity and inclusion. Candidates should be broadly knowledgeable about arts, culture, and public space and sensitive to the challenges of driving change in those sectors. While the direct focus of the grantmaking is regional, its influence on the field is national; the Director represents the Foundation to partners and stakeholders within the region and well beyond, including building partnerships with national and nonlocal funders and supporters.

The current Creative Communities Program design was adopted in 2021 after a two-year planning period and is now in its first phase of implementation. The new Director will play a key role in overseeing the evaluation, testing, and continual strengthening of the Program’s grantmaking strategies based on initial grantmaking experience.
