Hephzibah Okorie is a program officer and project manager at FCP, where she leads the strategic vision around FCP’s granting strategy and partners with grantees on executing their goals. Prior to joining FCP, she worked as an associate at Root Cause where she developed strategy, supported community engagement and designed evaluation and assessment processes for clients in the non-profit sector. She also worked as a business analyst at McKinsey and Company, where she focused on public and social sector strategy in higher education and health care organizations as well as supporting broad social impact research. Raised in the oil-producing capital of Nigeria, Hephzibah’s background and undergraduate education at Earlham College (and the Armand Hammer United World College) have inspired a career focus on addressing structural and economic inequities. She is grateful for a career that allows her to work with and learn from communities who are taking their economic wellbeing into their hands.
