A few additional benefits of working for the Community Foundation (subject to change):
- Work Week:

This means you get the same competitive salary while enjoying a better work-life balance with more personal time each week. This is a significant advantage that allows you to maintain a healthy balance between your professional and personal life.

- Flexible Work Arrangements (dependent on your role and time of year):
- Enjoy the flexibility of working from home 2-3 days a week after an initial transition period of 1-3 months in the office.
