Care Fund Names New Executive Director
Care Fund, a nonprofit dedicated to providing financial assistance to families with a seriously ill or injured child, has name Alyssa Crockett, formerly of Ryan House, its new executive director.
“Care Fund is set to grow, and Alyssa has the experience, values and passion to grow Care Fund strategically,” CEO of Homeowners Financial Group and co-founder of Care Fund Bill Rogers. “With the board, Alyssa will ensure the Care Fund is a bridge to a stronger, more stable family environment for all Arizonans.”
Crockett previously served as executive director for Ryan House where she transformed the annual budget and guided the organization to its first year in the black.
“Ryan House grew to become a national model of pediatric palliative care while Alyssa was its executive director, and it is now a sustainable, thriving organization serving many of the same families as the Care Fund,” said Rogers.
Care Fund was co-founded by Pat Lamb, president of Homeowners Financial Group, whose child passed away from an unexpected illness. The nonprofit grants mortgage or rent payments to families facing financial hardship due to a seriously ill or injured child.
“I am a true believer in the power of community,” Crockett said. “Care Fund’s community of donors makes sure a parent never has to choose between working to pay a mortgage and caring for his or her child.”
Crockett has had a 20-year career in nonprofits – holding positions and consulting in the areas of politics, education and healthcare.
