Caryl M. Stern joined the Walton Family Foundation as Executive Director after 14 years as President and CEO of UNICEF USA. Previously, Caryl served as Senior Associate National Director and Chief Operating Officer at the Anti-Defamation League, the founding director of its A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE® Institute, and the Dean of Students at Polytechnic University. A dynamic change-maker, Caryl has dedicated her career to helping others through education, compassion, advocacy and rolling up her sleeves.
Caryl’s professional responsibilities have taken her to more than 30 countries, representing UNICEF USA’s emergency relief efforts for children affected by disasters, including the 2010 Haiti earthquake, the 2011 East Africa drought, the Ebola and Zika epidemics and the ongoing global refugee and migrant crisis.
A sought-after public speaker on the topics of Kids Helping Kids, children and philanthropy, anti-bullying and international development, Caryl was invited to present at the White House’s inaugural summit on The United State of Women and was named one of “25 Women Changing the World in 2017” by People Magazine, “20 Most Influential Moms of 2017” by Family Circle, “25 Moms We Love” by Working Mother Magazine and “Ten Women to Watch” by Jewish Women International.

The recipient of five honorary Doctoral degrees, Caryl earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Studio Art, a Master’s Degree in College Student Personnel Administration and completed her PhD coursework in the same field. She wrote the book I Believe in Zero: Learning from the World’s Children,” in which she draws on her travels around the world, offering memorable, first-hand stories that present powerful and sometimes counter-intuitive lessons about life. “I Believe in ZERO” reflects her – and UNICEF’s – mission to reduce the number of children under the age of five who die from preventable causes from 19,000 each day to ZERO.
Caryl is an activist, author, executive, public speaker, mother of three and grandmother of two.

WTL special series: Enough for All - introduction
Wednesday Dec 01, 2021
Wednesday Dec 01, 2021
An introduction to a special podcast Walk Talk Listen series: Enough for All - the 75th anniversary of the faith based organization Church World Service. The series will introduce staff and partners, both old and current, of the faith based organization of which I have been a part for the last 23 years or so. Similar to the regular Walk Talk Listen podcast, I have tried to be the observer and listener. It will be of interest for all people interested in people and organizations. I hope this podcast series is much more than simply a "celebration" of 75 years of work of CWS but these real life stories are hopefully also a learning tool to adopt transformative and purposeful practices in our lives and organizations.
