The CARE Fund represents a unique and powerful model of public-private partnership, advancing life-saving cancer research across Washington State. Established by the Washington State Legislature in 2015, the CARE Fund has grown into a vital catalyst for innovation, economic development, and improved health outcomes. Now entering its second decade, the organization stands at an inflection point. With expanded legislative investment, including a significant $30 million appropriation in 2023, the CARE Fund is positioned to deepen its statewide impact and further elevate Washington's leadership in cancer research.<br /><br />The next Executive Director will step into this moment of momentum, inheriting a strong foundation built through thoughtful stewardship and strategic growth. This leader will have the opportunity to shape the future of the CARE Fund by advancing a clear vision, strengthening legislative and research partnerships, and ensuring that investments continue to deliver meaningful outcomes for patients, communities, and the broader life sciences ecosystem. As the primary representative of the CARE Fund, the Executive Director engages extensively with state elected officials, government agencies, research institutions, and external partners to sustain funding, promote the organization's work, and expand its reach.<br /><br />The Executive Director reports directly to the Board of Directors and ensures that all activities align with the organization's enabling legislation (Chapter 43.348 RCW), Board policies, and contractual agreements with the State of Washington and Washington Cancer Impact Foundation.<br /><br />CARE Fund program administration is provided by Washington Cancer Impact Foundation, a Washington nonprofit organization (fiscally sponsored by Evergreen Social Impact). CARE Fund benefits from strong governance, financial stewardship, and administrative support. This partnership enables the organization to maintain a focused, mission-driven approach while ensuring compliance with state regulations and best practices in nonprofit management.</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><img src="https://apptracker.jobelephant.com/img.php?id=7264606&amp;image=logo" alt="img.php?id=7264606&amp;image=logo" /><br /><span>Copyright ©2025 Jobelephant.com Inc.
