The Silicon Valley Leadership Group Foundation has announced the appointment of Nadia Ahmad, Director of Client Relations at KPMG, as Chair of the Foundation Board.

A longtime advocate for community organizations, Ahmad has served on the boards of several local nonprofits, including the San José Museum of Art and Healthier Kids Foundation.
“Everyone deserves access to the basics for a healthy life, yet too many people in Silicon Valley still lack these necessities. I am honored to serve as Chair and work alongside our Board and team to continue creating meaningful impact throughout our community.”
