During the Working Mothers Summit hosted by The Boston Globe, Natanja Craig Oquendo, CEO of the Boston Women’s Fund, offered a powerful reflection on leadership, care, and systemic change. Grounded in her experience advancing community-led philanthropy, her remarks challenged narratives around productivity and success, urging a shift toward models that support the full realities of working mothers.
"Motherhood did not just change my schedule, it changed my standards... Over the years, I learned something I carry with me now as the CEO of the Boston Women's Fund, where we move resources to grassroots women leaders who are already doing the work most institutions only talk about."
"When you are responsible for a human life, you stop confusing business with impact, and what I know from my own life, and what I know from being at the Boston Women's Fund, is that mothers are carrying far more than the world knows how to name." - Natanja Craig Oquendo, CEO Boston Women's Fund
