January 28, 2020

January 28, 2020 (Boston): New Profit announced that Stacy Janiak, Chief Growth Officer at Deloitte, has joined the New Profit Board of Directors. Janiak brings more than 25 years of experience counseling Fortune 500 companies and leaders to the board, where she will help guide New Profit into an exciting future, steward the longstanding collaboration between New Profit and Deloitte, and lend her insight and expertise to social entrepreneurs in the New Profit portfolio and network.

Stacy will be adding her deep experience and expertise in growth, as well as her unique perspective from the Midwest, to the board at an important time when we ourselves are growing and broadening our network. We are excited to work with her and continue to strengthen the collaboration between New Profit and Deloitte.

— Vanessa Kirsch, Founder and CEO of New Profit

The New Profit and Deloitte collaboration began in 2013, with a goal of providing nonprofits and other social impact organizations in New Profit’s portfolio with the caliber of strategic support that Fortune 500 companies can access. This catalytic support, delivered principally in collaboration with the Monitor Institute by Deloitte, helps organizations scale social impact the way that companies are able to scale products and services to reach millions of people.

To date, Deloitte and New Profit have collaborated to build the capacity of more than 40 organizations (read the full story of the collaboration and view the organizations served here). Deloitte has also recently advised New Profit on its developing Inclusive Impact initiative, which seeks to drive more financial and strategic resources to social impact organizations run by Black, Indigenous, and Latino/a/x leaders. Janiak’s colleagues on the New Profit board include Deloitte Principal Stephen Jennings, and she takes the place of Deloitte Principal and Government & Public Services Practice Leader Mike Canning, who stepped down in 2019.

New Profit’s approach to helping social innovations grow and thrive is truly groundbreaking. I’m honored to join the Board of Directors, and I look forward to building upon the strong relationship between New Profit and Deloitte as our organizations collaborate to drive transformative change in early learning, K-12 education, workforce development, and other critical areas.
