Listeners, we're back this week with Tanya Ramos!
Tanya is a leader of color who has devoted her career to improving educational opportunities and life outcomes for young people in the most low-resourced communities around the world. A tireless advocate for educational equality, she currently serves as the CEO of Pencils of Promise, a global nonprofit, and has successfully guided the organization to international recognition as a key player in the philanthropic world.
She and the star-studded list of Pencils of Promise supporters have been interviewed and featured about the cause on multiple media platforms including Forbes, CBS This Morning, Town and Country and Fast Company.
Tanya received her Master of Science in Urban Policy and Management from New School University and has been honored with the Annie E. Casey Foundation Award for exemplary work in underserved communities.
