After six years of directing our organization, Steve Delfin has resigned as Chief Executive Officer. Jim Starr, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Business Development Officer, has assumed interim CEO responsibilities as we launch a nationwide search for a permanent CEO.

In his second year with America’s Charities, Jim ​Starr continues to lead innovations in donor engagement and strategic partnerships, applying his 25 years of related experience to the benefit of ​our charity members and our employer clients. Our focus will continue to be on our members, clients and partners. Jim and our talented staff will keep America’s Charities on a trajectory for growth and success,​with the full support of the​ Board of Directors. 

If you have questions, please do not hesitate to contact me or Jim.
