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.
