Sarah Aronson
Interim Director of Development
At GO, Sarah works to both ensure the organization’s financial sustainability and support local teams in their efforts to raise funds to grow their impact. Sarah came to GO by way of 50CAN, where she partnered with local leaders in states across the US (from Connecticut to Hawaii) to improve state-level education policy. Her prior work experience has also included managing a volunteer program supporting low-income older adults to age in their own homes, as well as serving as with AmeriCorps VISTA, where she led youth community arts and educational programs.
The members of our Leadership Council are Oakland natives, residents, parents, grandparents, former teachers, principals, and alumni of Oakland public schools. Our leaders have deep connections to Oakland and strong backgrounds in education. The Leadership Council supports and guides our work in the best interest of Oakland students.
