Joan Russo - Director of Private Philanthropy of USA for UNHCR

Joan Salerno Russo has been named Senior Director of Private Philanthropy at USA for UNHCR, the United Nations Refugee Agency. Joan’s deep experience spans organizations addressing cancer, education, diabetes, and more. Per Joan, “My skills matched perfectly with their needs. Many thanks to Turnkey for enabling all of us to turn my placement to full time employment. The culture here at USA for UNHCR is perfect for me.”  

 

Joan most recently served as a consultant for Turnkey. Prior, she served as Chief Development Officer at the Melanoma Research Foundation, Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey, and held other top-level roles across several well-regarded national organizations.  

 

Anne-Marie Grey, CEO of USA for UNHCR, said, “Turnkey assisted us in finding an interim Senior Director of Major Gifts and then willingly worked with us as we went through the formal recruitment process for the position. With Turnkey’s full support and encouragement, we successfully recruited our interim hire to a member of our staff.  I am particularly impressed with the depth of talent on Turnkey’s temporary staffing roster and Turnkey’s ability to find us both interim and permanent staff members from their pool of talented consultants.”  

 

USA for UNHCR envisions a world without refugees, accomplishing that vision through empowerment with hope and opportunity.
