Foundations need diversity in the C suite - Opinion - Crain's Chicago Business

Foundations need diversity in the C suite - Opinion - Crain's Chicago Business: ccording to data compiled by the Council on Foundations, only 4 percent of foundation CEOs nationwide are African-American and 7 percent of foundation trustees are African-American. These data are taken from a survey of less than 1 percent of U.S. foundations.

Nationwide, the number of African-American chief executives has remained stagnant. At best, the number of African-Americans leading Chicago-area foundations reflects national data on diversity in philanthropy.
