Leadership Opportunity at CTF: Building What’s Next

As we look ahead, we want to share that Leah Shaffer, our dedicated Executive Director, will be stepping down at the end of 2025. Leah’s leadership has guided the Community Trust Foundation through a period of remarkable growth, deepened community relationships, and expanded impact across Allegany, Garrett, and Mineral Counties. Her legacy is woven into the very fabric of our work and we are deeply grateful.
Thanks to the generosity of our donors and the dedication of our team, CTF is in a strong position, both financially and operationally, for this transition. The Board is approaching the leadership crossover with great care and strategic planning to ensure a smooth and thoughtful handoff.

We are now seeking a new visionary leader to step into this exciting role. The next Executive Director will bring a passion for community, strong public engagement skills, and a talent for project planning and communication strategy. This is a unique opportunity to lead a trusted philanthropic organization into its next chapter, building on a solid foundation while shaping the future of regional impact.
