Independent Sector’s Diana Aviv to Become New CEO of America’s Charities Member, Feeding America
Diana Aviv, who has led Independent Sector for 12 years, will leave the nonprofit-advocacy organization on October 1 to take a new job as chief executive of Feeding America. She will replace Bob Aiken, who resigned as CEO in early May.
Matt Knott, Feeding America’s president, will serve as the interim CEO until Ms. Aviv takes over. With $1.85 billion in private support, Feeding America ranks in the top five charities that bring in the most in private gifts, according to The Chronicle’s Philanthropy 400 survey.
