Ann Marie Habershaw

(1962-2018) was a cofounder and board member of the Lever Fund. In this November 2017 blog post, Ann Marie wrote, "I have had the opportunity to work throughout my career with people who focus each and every day on creating equality of opportunity for all. It is why I was inspired by a group of like-minded people to help start the Lever Fund." She was Chief Operating Officer of Bully Pulpit Technologies and had previously served as the Chief Operating Officer of Obama for America and as Chief of Staff and Director of External Affairs at the U.S. Office of Personnel Management. A formidable leader, Ann Marie was the heart of Lever Fund. We carry her spirit with us as we continue to expand opportunity in the region.
