NEWBURGH – The Board of Habitat for Humanity of Greater Newburgh has named Jill Marie Rothschild as the organization’s new executive director.
“We chose Jill Marie because we were impressed with her many years of non-profit work in Orange County, her leadership skills, and her thoughts about fulfilling our mission of providing affordable housing,” said Board President Paul Brothe.
She will join the organization on October 4.
“Her appointment begins at a critical time for the organization,” said Brothe. “Housing costs continue to climb, and we have seen a dramatic increase in the number of people asking for our help. At the same time our costs to build a home have never been higher.”
He said having a strong leader “will help ensure Habitat for Humanity of Greater Newburgh can enter its 25th year nimbly and ready to lay an even greater foundation for our future.”
