Video: Connect with Program VP Pakou Hang

Pakou joined us in April as our Vice President of Program.

In this video, you’ll have the chance to learn more about her—directly in her own words. She describes her experience as an immigrant and as a community leader and connects it to the Foundation’s vision to support change that’s led by and for community.

She invites you to reach out by email or to meet in person during one of the solidarity summits she’s hosting in each of our eight states over the coming months.
