MALCZYK INTERNS AT COMMUNITY FOUNDATION

The Community Foundation of Herkimer & Oneida Counties, Inc. has announced that Whitesboro native Ben Malczyk is its 2011 Summer Fellow for Grant Evaluation.
Malczyk earned his bachelor’s degree in Marriage, Family and Human Development from Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah in 2010. Prior to receiving his undergraduate degree, he was a missionary for his church in Recife, Brazil. He is currently enrolled in the MSW/PhD program in Social Welfare at SUNY Albany’s School of Social Welfare. He resides in Yorkville with his wife Jen and their son Robert.

In his role at The Community Foundation, Malczyk works with staff to evaluate grants recently made by The Foundation. His work allows The Community Foundation to assess the impact of its grantmaking and gain insight into its role as a resource for not-for-profit organizations and the community as a whole.

The Community Foundation has been a force for improving lives and livelihood in our region since 1952. The Foundation has made more than 4,700 grants totaling over $37.2 million in support of causes ranging from education to health care, the arts to the environment. Grants are generated by the more than 270 funds that comprise The Foundation’s endowment, established and advanced by area individuals and families.

NOTE: Ben will be interning with NYCON CEO Doug Sauer this fall.
