Neiderman joins the publication from Temple Health, where she spent a decade leading development and annual giving programs. Her new mandate centers on advancing the model established by the late H.F. "Gerry" Lenfest, whose vision transformed the 200-year-old institution into a news organization supported by both traditional revenue and community philanthropy. Working alongside the Lenfest Institute for Journalism, she will focus on scaling the High-Impact Journalism Fund and deepening donor relationships.
Meredith Neiderman Named Vice President of Development at The Inquirer
The Philadelphia Inquirer has appointed Meredith Neiderman as its first Vice President of Development, tasking the veteran fundraiser with expanding the organization’s philanthropic efforts. Starting July 13, she will lead efforts to secure individual and foundation support to sustain the newsroom’s mission of providing independent local journalism.
Publisher and CEO Elizabeth H. Hughes cited Neiderman’s strategic leadership and local ties as key assets for the newspaper’s growth. Before her tenure at Temple Health, Neiderman held roles at the Pew Charitable Trusts and the Children’s National Health System. A Lower Merion native, she holds an MBA from Temple University and will now apply her background to connect Philadelphia-area supporters with the newsroom’s investigative and public-service reporting.
