Ford Presidential Foundation

Important staffing announcement for the Ford Presidential Foundation: Executive Director Gleaves Whitney will be stepping down effective December 31.

Since 2020, Gleaves has led the Foundation with deep respect for President Ford’s character. Under his leadership, and with member support, the Foundation launched the Ford Leadership Forum, the FORD50 campaign, and partnerships that bring world-class speakers to Grand Rapids. We are deeply grateful for his leadership.

If you only listen to one thing today, listen to Maria Shriver's beautiful, moving tribute to #BettyFord.

"Every leader since who has stood before us and admitted to being human is Betty Ford’s heir."
