The Hayes YouthFoundation Need help now

Leadership

Small
on purpose.

Our board is in formation. We are naming people as they commit, not before.

Amber Anderson

Founder

Amber has spent roughly twenty five years in multifamily real estate, across development, operations, and asset performance, on four continents. She founded The Hayes Youth Foundation in honor of her grandfather, Bill "Papo" Hayes, who raised her without being related to her. The foundation is her personal project and operates independently of her professional work.

Craig Parker

Treasurer · Chief Operating Officer, The MORE Group

Former Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer of Holland Partner Group, and a director of Up for Growth Action, a national housing policy organization. His career spans real estate development, finance, and large-scale project leadership at Walt Disney Imagineering, Pulte Homes, and Fluor.

Brian Doherty

Chief Revenue Officer, SKBM Smart Technology

Two decades in multifamily technology and operations, including leadership roles at Entrata, InhabitIQ, Domuso, and Yardi. He brings the operator relationships that Doors of Hope depends on.

In formation

Additional board members are in discussion and will be named here once they have committed, not before.

Still building

We are looking
for a few more.

People with direct experience in youth services, child welfare, nonprofit governance, and Utah community leadership.

And especially people with lived experience of the instability this foundation exists to address.

We are deliberately recruiting outside real estate. A board drawn only from one industry cannot oversee work it has never done.
