After seven years of dedicated service, the Community Foundation congratulates Dina McGee on her retirement. Dina has served as the Director of Bedford County Endowments since 2019, playing a pivotal role in growing the Foundation’s presence in Bedford County.

Lladel Lichty, who has served as CFA’s Director of Somerset County Endowments since 2020, will now serve as the Director of Bedford County and Somerset County Endowments. Lladel will continue to work with donors in both counties to open new funds that serve each community through grantmaking.

Additionally, we are pleased to welcome two new staff members to our Johnstown office—Grants Administrator Samuel J. Barber and Nonprofit Partners Accounting Assistant Jessica Popish.

Samuel will work in the Foundation’s grants department, providing administrative support to process, track, and manage grant payments and applications. Jessica will work in accounts payable for our subsidiary organization Nonprofit Partners.
