NARF Development Director Carly Hare was honored by the Boulder County Business Report’s “Forty Under 40.” This award recognizes young entrepreneurs at local clean-energy companies to up-and-coming leaders in the nonprofit sector, from banking executives to real estate professionals. These individuals are the rising stars of the Boulder Valley.
While Carly Hare was program director for the Community Foundation serving Boulder and Broomfield Counties, she was the driving force behind the foundation’s Expanding Leadership Initiative, with a mission of increasing the representation of people of color on the boards and the staff of nonprofit organizations. Now in her new role at the Native American Rights Fund, she has the potential to impact the national scene as well.
Throughout 2010, we will provide a timeline of the growth and impact of the Native American Rights Fund. We will chronicle NARF events, important cases that set precedence and the cases that challenged sovereignty. Each E-Action Newsletter we will continue this story from our initial work through the cases and issues we are working on today.
