As we continue to celebrate past presidents of the Women's Giving Alliance, we are shining a spotlight on our fifth president, Susan Schantz. Serving from 2011 to 2012, Susan guided WGA through our tenth anniversary and updating our strategic plan. WGA also launched a pivotal research report during Susan's tenure, Stronger Voices…Better Lives, which established mental health as our first multi-year grantmaking focus.
