Foundation Staff

Helen Kim
Executive Director

Helen joined Hoffberger Family Philanthropies in late November 2020 as a Program Officer and became Executive Director (ED) in February 2023 after serving in the interim ED role since November 2022. She previously provided consulting services in the nonprofit sector with the primary focus of helping her clients expand their equity and access effort. Prior to consulting, she served at a few nascent foundations—including The Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust and the Jack Kent Cooke Foundation—building organizational capacity as well as managing multi-million national and international grant portfolios. Additional experience includes an appointment with the Corporation for National and Community Service, the agency that oversees the national AmeriCorps and Senior Corps volunteer programs, specifically serving as a liaison with the White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives, which expanded the government’s effort to support grassroots nonprofits. She is also a lifelong volunteer with a background in development and publishing. Helen earned her MPA in Nonprofit Management and a MA in Philanthropic Studies from Indiana University and the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy along with a BA in English from the University of Virginia.

The Hoffberger Family Philanthropies encompasses two charitable organizations:

A 501(c)(3) charitable, grantmaking foundation whose board members are lineal descendants of Sarah and Charles Hoffberger.

The Hoffberger Family Fund, Inc.
A supporting foundation of The Associated administered by the Center for Funds and Foundations. Its board consists of members appointed by The Associated as well as members of the Hoffberger family.
