Sheila Nelson - 40 Years of Dedicated Service

After more than 40 years of outstanding, dedicated service, August 31 will be Sheila Nelson's last day at the Foundation. Sheila began her career at the Foundation providing administrative support for the Asia & Pacific Region of Program before moving to a Staff Assistant role in Manpower in 1972. Through the years she contributed to the transformation of Manpower into Personnel Services which then became the Human Resources organization she supports today. Many staff and retirees through the years have benefited from Sheila's unflagging service on a variety of staff and retiree needs. As the Foundation has celebrated key milestone events over the last decade, Sheila has also been called on many times to provide archival information on our large group of Ford Foundation alumni. I have been privileged to work alongside Sheila for almost 11 years, and I will always cherish her contributions to the Benefits and Compensation Unit. I know that many of you around the world will join me in thanking Sheila and wishing her the best as she plans the next chapter in her life.
