New CEO Amalia Luxardo

Amalia Luxardo joined the Women’s Foundation of Southern Arizona in January 2019 as the new Chief Executive Officer. As WFSA’s CEO, Luxardo provides strategic leadership in community engagement, mobilizing key stakeholders in advocacy and public policy, and securing financial resources to increase the sustainability and growth of the organization.

By way of Florida and Argentina, Luxardo is proud to call Arizona home. As the daughter of immigrants, her academic and professional careers have been dedicated to social, economic, racial, and gender issues.

In the last 10 years, our grantmaking has tripled. Yet, less than 8% of our all foundation giving in the U.S. goes to women and girls. We are so grateful to our donors for working to change this.
