I am happy to announce that we have three new members of the Energy Foundation Board of Directors.

Melanie Audette is senior vice president at Mission Investors Exchange with more than 20 years’ experience in philanthropy, from grantmaking to impact investing. Prior to joining Charter Communications, Don Cravins, Jr. served as the National Urban League’s Senior Vice President for Policy and Executive Director of the National Urban League’s Washington Bureau. His primary responsibilities include developing the League’s policy, research and advocacy agenda and expanding its impact and influence inside the Capital Beltway. Carlos Curbelo is a former U.S. congressman who represented Florida’s 26th Congressional District (Miami) from 2015 to 2019 and was consistently ranked as one of the most bipartisan members for his work to build consensus across the aisle on challenging policy questions. 

We look forward to working with Melanie, Don, and Carlos as their experience, expertise, and perspectives shape our strategies and grantmaking.
