Over three years as CEO, Karen Knudsen led ACS through COVID—and reversed the charity’s long slump

Over the past three years, the American Cancer Society has recovered from the fundraising decline brought on by COVID-19 and has reversed the years-long fundraising slump in public support. This three-year financial performance has led the charity’s board to extend the employment contract for its CEO, Karen E. Knudsen. Public support for the charity has increased by nearly 25%, from a $559.8 million in 2020 to $738.2 in 2023.
