Join us as we sit down with Jenny Lipson-Yang, “reformed accountant” and Director of the United Foundation for China's Health (UFCH) to chat about her extraordinary career and her advice on how to grow a foundation in creative and sustainable ways in China.
After a high-flying financial career with multinational corporations like General Motors and Raytheon Defense Corporation, Jenny joined United Family Healthcare in 2006. Equipped with her well-honed financial skills, she then turned her focus on providing direct medical assistance to disadvantaged groups in China. Under her leadership, UFCH was able to extend badly-needed medical care to orphans, impoverished families, homeless persons, abused women, migrants, and more.
