Martin Castro, President and CEO of the Mexican American Opportunity Foundation (MAOF), announced the promotion of Vicky Santos to Vice President of Operations, and Magda Menendez to Director of Operations in Kern County. Their promotions, effective immediately, are part of an organizational restructuring, Castro said.
Ms. Menendez, in her new capacity, will be the local go-to person in Kern County for all MAOF operations, reporting to Ms. Santos and working with staff on child care matters involving MAOF Bakersfield and Delano child care centers.
Castro noted that the restructuring frees him to focus on expanding MAOF’s presence in Washington, D.C., and Sacramento, as well as on the recent launchings of the financial literacy program in Nevada and the MAOF Computer Clubhouse in Walnut Park.
