There’s a change in the VP ranks at the Abell Foundation. Lynn Heller left the role of vice president on Jan. 19 after four years overseeing operations and heading up environmental grantmaking.

She is currently Managing Director of Programs and Grants at the The Harry and Jeannette Weinberg Foundation, where she led the Summer Funding Collaborative and early-stage childhood education strategy. She also previously worked in the Mayor’s Office of Criminal Justice. She plans to start on February 20 at Abell.
