Description
DESCRIPTION: The mission of the Foundation to Combat Antisemitism (FCAS) is to win the hearts and minds of non-Jews and Jews through powerful positive messaging and partnerships, motivating and equipping them to be defenders of and upstanders for Jews. FCAS focuses on spreading the Blue Square and associated programs to spur action by people of all backgrounds.

The Vice President will define, operationalize, and execute a comprehensive strategy that frames FCAS programmatic offerings, how and with whom the Foundation will partner, considerations for when to offer programming independently, and expectations of partners at a time when existing and prospective partners are seeking increased engagement with FCAS and tools for educating and activating their respective constituencies.
