Anticipated start date: June-July 2022

After 19 years of dedicated service, Cynthia Rubenstein, Executive Director of Passion For Learning, has announced her plan to retire on June 30, 2022. To ensure a smooth transition, the Board of Directors has established a transition-search task force to recruit a new Executive Director.

Organization Mission:

Students of color and students from low-income families continue to be under-represented in STEM-related pursuits, on college campuses and as college degree and professional credential earners. Starting in middle school, Passion for Learning (P4L) helps our youth gain STEM-related capabilities and interests as well as set goals and start to plan their path to post-secondary education and careers.

Since 2004 P4L has addressed students’ “opportunity gaps” in the development of STEM interests and readiness-preparation for post-secondary education. We support youth who, due to low family income and other barriers, may receive less encouragement and fewer opportunities to see themselves as “belonging in STEM” and “belonging in college.”

Our youth:

P4L engages students in middle school (grades 6-8) and high school (grades 9-12) from Montgomery County Public Schools in Silver Spring, Wheaton, Aspen Hill-Rockville, and Gaithersburg in some of the lowest income census areas of the county.  Our annual student body is approximately 40% Black/African American, 40% Hispanic/Latino, 10% Asian/Pacific Islander, 10% White.

Position Summary:

The Board of Directors seeks a hands-on, entrepreneurial and strategic leader to help our well-respected nonprofit grow its reach and deepen its impact. The next Executive Director (ED) will have an active commitment to advancing educational equity and opportunity for the under-served student population that P4L engages. Reporting to the Board of Directors, the ED is responsible for the organization’s consistent achievement of its mission and financial objectives, and will have overall responsibility for fundraising, overseeing programs, ensuring the financial health and sustainability of the organization, developing staff, and maintaining/building relationships with various stakeholders P4L’s long-time ED is retiring after 19 years.  The incoming ED will have access to consult with the transitioning ED to gain deep insight into P4L’s mission, programs, and financial models.  The new ED will then be expected to work with the Board of Directors to develop, plan, and execute a sustainable path forward for the organization.
